Nancy and Yoric- Photoshop Textures

























I was experimenting with adding textures to my photos last week.
I've been doing this for years, but am really pleased at some of my results lately.
The internet is jam packed with  1,000's of free textures for use in Photoshop.
Simply by combining different textures on individual layers and using the eraser tool, some really amazing looks can happen in just a couple of minutes. Changing an OK photo into something memorable.

Your huge interest in combining layers makes your work burst with possibilities. It's my opinion that any great work exploits a synthesis of stylistic approaches.

Keep on truckin', dude.

I had no idea such was available on the Internet for free, but then again one would have to know how to do it. I feel the technology world is passing me by. Beautiful.

Thanks John, I did a bunch of these last week that I'll be posting.

Thanks TSL! Yes it's so easy to fall behind-I'm about 5 years behind at this point, but don't worry about it too much. As long as the tools I have can get the job done.
