Textures

Galvanized metal, old rusty pipes, broken bricks...these don't sound like magic makers, but they do open a avenue to create something more interesting. For example, take an already great photo, apply a layer of texture over it, and poof...perhaps an art piece has evolved! There are so many amazing creations around us. Rust, metals, stones, paints, colors, grass, soil etc! The possibilities are endless and these textures are plentiful if we look for them. Best of all..they are free!!

Here are some examples of how textures can change a beautiful picture into an interesting, multi-dimensional work of art. Here is the original Photo.
The Texture used.

Here is the final product. Looks aged with scratches, but with a bit more depth to it.

The Texture we used

The Final product. Almost looks like we re-colored all the marble in the floor.

As you can see the possibilities are endless and the process is really simple in photoshop. Stay tuned in the next day or two for more examples!
