This study examines the evolution and conceptualization of texture in painting, delving into the varied methods and techniques of texture application across different genres and periods. Historically underrepresented in painting theories and studies, texture's expressive role is critically analyzed through qualitative methods, including literature review and art piece analysis. The research is divided into two main parts: the historical development of texture concepts and the specific characteristics of texture application techniques. Key findings reveal the progression from natural and representational textures to abstract, sensory, and extended forms. By investigating various artistic approaches, the study highlights texture's complex nature through methods like layering, pigment experimentation, tool use, and innovative techniques. This exploration enhances understanding of texture's aesthetic and conceptual impact in art, enriching artists' creative expression and offering new perspectives on contemporary art's texture definition and uniqueness.
