  2. Texture (visual arts) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Texture_(visual_arts)

    In the visual arts, texture refers to the perceived surface quality of a work of art. It is an element found in both two-dimensional and three-dimensional designs, and it is characterized by its visual and physical properties. The use of texture, in conjunction with other design elements, can convey a wide range of messages and evoke various ...

  3. Elements of art - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elements_of_art

    The element of value is compatible with the term luminosity, and can be "measured in various units designating electromagnetic radiation". [6] The difference in values is often called contrast, and references the lightest (white) and darkest (black) tones of a work of art, with an infinite number of grey variants in between. [6]

  4. Composition (visual arts) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Composition_(visual_arts)

    Texture refers to how an object feels or how it looks like it may feel if it were touched. There are two ways we experience texture, physically and optically. Different techniques can be used to create physical texture, which allows qualities of visual art to be seen and felt. This can include surfaces such as metal, sand, and wood.

  5. Image texture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_texture

    Artificial texture example. Natural texture example. An image texture is the small-scale structure perceived on an image, based on the spatial arrangement of color or intensities. [1] It can be quantified by a set of metrics calculated in image processing. Image texture metrics give us information about the whole image or selected regions. [1]

  6. The arts - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_arts

    The applied arts include fields such as industrial design, illustration, and commercial art. [71] The term "applied art" is used in distinction to the fine arts, where the latter is defined as arts that aim to produce objects that are beautiful or provide intellectual stimulation but have no primary everyday function. In practice, the two often ...

    Port with the disembarkation of Cleopatra in Tarsus (1642), by Claude Lorrain, Musée du Louvre, Paris. Light in painting fulfills several objectives like, both plastic and aesthetic: on the one hand, it is a fundamental factor in the technical representation of the work, since its presence determines the vision of the projected image, as it affects certain values such as color, texture and ...

  8. Texture mapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Texture_mapping

    A texture map [5] [6] is an image applied (mapped) to the surface of a shape or polygon. [7] This may be a bitmap image or a procedural texture.They may be stored in common image file formats, referenced by 3D model formats or material definitions, and assembled into resource bundles.

  9. UV mapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UV_mapping

    The application of a texture in the UV space related to the effect in 3D. A representation of the UV mapping of a cube. The flattened cube net may then be textured to texture the cube. UV mapping is the 3D modeling process of projecting a 3D model's surface to a 2D image for texture mapping.
