So here’s Episode 2 of taking photos of random things in my garden and turning them into useful assets in Photoshop. Starting off with this brick wall, we can go ahead and go to the bottom of the page and add in a black and white filter. From here we can adjust these settings to make sure that we have a high contrast between the blacks and the whites in our photo. Once we’ve done that, we can go to file at the top of the page, go to export, and export this as a PNG. So with the photo of the spider web, we can now add a black and white filter and adjust the settings again so we have a high contrast for the artwork. We can add in some text, throw in our brick overlay, and then change the blending mode of this and clip it to the hands. Add in the spider web, and now you can change the blending mode and you get this nice scratchy effect that you can use for your designs. Follow for more Photoshop tips!
