Step 2 - Find Textures

Start searching for images of visual textures using ONLY the internet sites below. You should have at least 10-15 HIGH RESOLUTION images.

  1. Save your images to your H:// drive. You should have 10-15 images before you start your collage.
  2. The images of visual textures should be as high resolution as possible. Right click > Properties > Dimensions. The resolution should be over 500 dpi.
  3. These are the ONLY sites you should need for this project. You should not be using any search engines! Remember that you do not want OBJECTS that can be recognized, but the texture from the object!
