Dry Brush

[Shelley S.]

I was playing around with the dry brush effect in PSE today. Here's what I did:

Whoooaa! that is gorgeous and looks almost 3D. Stunning colours too. What a lovely effect. You did a great job Shelley.

Nicely done. The flowers seems to jump out and asked to be noticed. Well done.

Thanks everyone! I like this effect and think I'm going to "play" with it more often!

I love that - it's great! Would you mind explaining a little about the technique and what you did?

Wow, Michele! My favorite flowers and I really love the soft colors and nice angle in this one. Very pretty!

Well, I'm just learning PSE so mostly I've been hitting all the "auto" buttons...colour, contrast, etc. For this I did that as well, but then clicked on the "dry brush" tool that is on the right hand side of the screen. Then I just moved the sliders until I got a look that I liked, hit apply, and voila! Right now all my editing has been very basic and a lot of playing around (like this shot).

Thanks for your compliments everyone!
