This is a project I did a month or so ago.  Thank you to Nathan Andrick for showing me the site.  This is a really cool effect.

This is the Stearns HS French Club.  Try to add the words in the white space above the heads and make it look like the words are actually on the wall.

Paint Dancers


I call this one my "Paint Dancers" because it comes from paint splatters that have turned into dancers.  This is a tricky project and involves a lot of layers and some really cool images and brushes.  The paint splatters came from a stock photo site, which allows members to use the images for free.  Same with the dancing images and the jars.  The smoke and swirls are done with the brush tool.  The end result is spectacular with all the different colors, smoke, swirls and light.

Tree Lauren


This is a cool project that puts a face into a tree trunk.  Some images work better than others.  This one came out pretty good.

Basket Cali and Cassidy

Recent Photoshop Projects



This is a really cool project that uses layer masks and clipping masks to produce a "basket weave" effect.  These are fun to do and not difficult at all.  


This is a photo of my friend, Andrew, at his band's CD release party.  Using a few different layer masks and the smoke brush, I created a disbursement effect that (attempts anyway) to make it look like he is becoming smoke.  


This fierce looking young lady really wants to play field hockey!  This was a fairly easy project that involves layer masks, text and creating a frame around the image with "Fx" found under the layer panel.

Kaleidoscope


These four images were created with the same photo using smart object in Photoshop cs6.  By copying the smart object in the shape of a triangle and flipping it around the page, the smart objects are all connected to the same clipping mask.  That means, when you move the photo that is clipped, it will update all of the smart objects, not just that one.  The results are a self updating Kaleidoscope that give you results like the following photos.  Pretty cool!  Check out the tutorial at the following website:  https://www.video2brain.com/en/lessons/creating-self-updating-kaleidoscopic-effects
