In this week’s video tutorial I demonstrate how you can take a really basic photo and extract elements to create an interesting design element in Photoshop. The cool thing is that this could work on almost any photo. All you need to do is look at the various part of a photo and pick an element that has an interesting shape to it. Then by applying this technique you can turn a noticeable object into a really interesting abstract shape. You could even take it further by turning the shape into a custom brush.

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.
