video games, animation, or comic books before it is put into the final product. Concept art is also
referred to as visual development and/or concept design. This term can also be applied to retail,
set, fashion, architectural and industrial design.

of a character and what he looks like.














Texture Art:
In the visual arts, texture is the perceived surface quality of a work of art. It is an element of two
dimensional and three-dimensional designs and is distinguished by its perceived visual and
physical properties. Use of texture, along with other elements of design, can convey a variety of
messages and emotions.

like in game, and in my own opinion I think they look really nice and realistic 









Background Graphics:
The area of a display screen not covered by characters and graphics. The background is like a canvas on top
of which characters and graphics are placed. Some monitors allow you to control the colour or shading of the
background.
