Copy this definition of texture

Texture: The way the surface of an object feels to the touch.

This is called actual texture. Actual texture may be rough, smooth, grainy, slick, gritty, etc.

Artists also create simulated texture. You can see these textures and imagine how they would feel, but if you touch them they only feel like the surface on which they've been drawn, painted, or printed.

Copy and illustrate in your sketchbook:

Oaxacan woodcarvings

Oaxacan woodcarvings, also known as alebrijes, have been a tradition for generations in several small villages outside the capital of Oaxaca, Mexico. Only in the past 35 years have they become popular, and are now collected worldwide. Using rudimentary tools, these artists create fascinating figures out of green, fresh-cut copal wood. After drying and sanding, the carvings are painted, limited only by each artist’s imagination.
