In the case of a still life, or a painting where the wooden object is the subject of the painting or directly adjacent to the area of focus,then a more detailed handling of the wood grain may be required. But also remember that as a wood surface (such as a table top) is laid flat in perspective, the grain gets tighter and blends together, and fewer of the individual lines of the grain can be seen. Or, if you are looking down the direction of the grain, the lines converge as they become more distant.

To be continued, more examples coming soon.
