Texture

Texture refers to the surface quality or feel of an object, which can be tactile (how it feels when touched) or visual (how it appears to the eye). It describes characteristics like smoothness, roughness, softness, or coarse features. For example, a velvet fabric feels soft and plush, while a tree bark feels rough and rugged. Texture helps convey sensory information and adds visual interest, making materials or surfaces more engaging and recognizable. It plays a vital role in art, design, and everyday perception by influencing how we interpret and interact with different surfaces.
