Lesson#1-Making of an Aquarel-painting

  Making of an Aquarel-painting       

 

   

           

STEP 1

1 - Open a new document

 First we will create the background for our picture

2 - Let's call the first layer 'background', and make it white with the 'paint bucket tool'.
3 - Then we apply the 'Filter / Texture / Texturizer'

Texturizer options:
Scaling = 100 %
Relief = 4
Light = Bottom Left

 STEP 2

1 - Copy and paste the original image into the document.
2 - Name the layer 'Original'
3 - Duplicate the layer (ctrl + j) and call it 'Aquarel'

 Now we have 3 layers:
- Aquarel (watercolor effect)
- Original (original image)
- Background (paper)

 STEP 3

-Color Correction-

1 - Take your coat 'Aquarel'
2 - Use the 'Image / Adjustments / Hue-Saturation'
3 - In the line of "saturation" (saturation), set this value to -50 and click OK

 STEP 4

Watercolor-effect-

1 - Take your coat 'aquarel'
2 - Go to 'Filter / Brush Strokes / Crosshatch'

Crosshatch settings:
Stroke Lenght = 3
Sharpness = 10
Strength = 1

 STEP 5

To make the paper texture in the image, select the layer 'Aquarel' and apply:

'Filter / Texture / Texturizer'

Options:
Scaling = 100%
Relief = 4
Light = Bottom Left

 STEP 6

Place the layer Opacity to 80% Aquarel

 STEP 7

Combine the layers 'Aquarelle' and 'Original'

 STEP 8

1 - Take the 'Eraser tool'

I used the 'Charcoal Large Smear' for a beautiful effect of drawing.
Then set the opacity eraser about 10%, for for a soft effect.

2 - Now just erase all the excess in the picture. Try to "clean up" the picture on all sides for a more realistic painting effects.

 STEP 9

1 - Duplicate the image layer (ctrl + j) and name it 'Aquarel 2'
2 - Put the opacity to 80%
3rd place Layer-mode for the layer 'aquarel' to 'Luminosity'

STEP 10

Merge Layers. Now you have your own art!
