Textures are something that every graphic designer and digital artist knows how to put to good use to. Usually used as a background to merge with the overall design and complement the look and feel of the art design, textures add a little something extra, a little oomph, a little wow factor. There are a variety of textures to choose and use to your liking, and today we are highlighting some of the most alluring ones just for you!

In our earlier posts, we shared some background textures with you, and indeed these textures below can also be used to the same effect, but let no holds bar you from your creative impulses and feel free to use them on, with or behind your art designs, in whatever way you like. The thing we love the most about these textures is that they are so dynamic, they can virtually be used in a multitude of ways, and since they are so real and lifelike, they will add that zing to whatever you want to create, whether it is a website, a brochure, a pamphlet, an e-card, in short for almost every web and print services.

So let’s delve into the textures now, shall we? We know how important it is for designers and artists alike to amalgamate their designs and art into one harmonious whole. Therefore, these textures ranging from their realistic grainy feel or utterly smooth as silk look, from hard wood to rough concrete, from old vintage to peeling paint, from thread and fabric to water and paint, virtually every surface known to man, can be used as a texture for your design work.
