Visual Texture (LIMIT of 1 image per 24 hrs)

About This Group

WELCOME to the Visual Texture Group a group to share images with Exceptional Texture, where Texture is the Major part of the visual feel of the artwork.
Either natural or added in post, or with striking elements that produce a visual sense of texture – images that make you want to reach out and touch them!

We are looking for your best works to display here, please do not submit snapshots or pictures with no visible texture, or photographs that are out of focus.

All types of media and/or techniques welcome.
Please do not submit iPhone Cases or T-Shirts/stickers etc to this group

• ONE image per 24/hrs to avoid flooding the front page. We will have to reject your additional images if this rule is not followed.

Please read the following guidelines:
• Texture must be obvious and a major part of the overall composition to be accepted.
• An animal or a flower somewhere in the picture will not qualify unless it has very visible texture. More than just fur, more than just petals. Having a flower or animal in focus with a blurred or black background will be rejected! Unless there is an overlay of exceptional texture added. We want texture all over, not just in a small spot.
• Landscapes will need to be worked on as a composite with a textured layer, or you must stress the compelling elements and their texture. For example, a close-up of a specific area in the landscape as a focal point. 

• Still life photography can only be accepted if TEXTURE is stressed.
• Look through our FEATURED ART GALLERY if you would like a better understanding of what this group is striving to display for everyone to enjoy.

Images must be submitted to the group before they can be submitted to a challenge.

No nudes, no pornography, no gruesome horror. If the Safe Filter is needed, we cannot accept it here.

The hosts reserve their right to refuse a submitted work. Please don’t get upset if your work is not accepted. it is not personal and only means it does not fit in this one group.
