It’s funny where inspiration hits. The other day I was having lunch and I noticed on the menu there was a remarkable image of a margarita. I started thinking, “that is an interesting water effect.” Of course being the Photoshop geek I am, I started thinking about how I would create that effect in Photoshop. Well, I got home that evening and started messing around with it and the result came out pretty good. This piece was created entirely from scratch using Photoshop and Illustrator. No photographs whatsoever. Click here to see. As a result I have begun to break it down and I am exploring the possibilities of recreating the image as an online training course for Kelby Training.

When I’m done working with an image, I like to sit and admire it (hey, I spent six hours working on it, I should). To do that, I hit the Tab key, then hit the F key three times. This hides all of the panels and toolbars and lets you see the image by itself surrounded by black. To get back to regular mode, press the F key and the Tab key one more time.

Looks very stunning. Very Photo realistic. Care to share how it’s done? I’m guessing it’s something very complicated but it’s probably just a few simple steps (knowing how complex things usually is very simple).
