Artists use techniques like impasto, stippling, and cross-hatching to create texture, adding depth and appeal. Impasto involves thick paint layers for a tangible surface, stippling uses dots for gradual texture, and cross-hatching uses lines for various tones. Mixed media, incorporating materials like fabric or sand, brings tactile diversity. Texture engages viewers, evoking emotions and guiding attention. Rough textures convey rugged landscapes, while smooth surfaces suggest serenity. Texture defines mood, allowing artists to communicate beyond color and form.
