Answer

Texture refers to the surface quality of an object - how it feels or appears to feel (rough, smooth, bumpy, soft, hard, etc.). In art, texture can be:

a. Actual texture: Real surface quality you can touch

b. Visual texture: The illusion of texture created through drawing and painting techniques

c. Patterns and marks that suggest different surface qualities
