I've been playing with brushes again today. I want to create a corporate logo/image throughout the magazine, but something like a drop of water. I've been looking through some photoshop trouble shooting books. The first one by Peter Beid Cui is all about creating the wonderful flows. I've managed to create a green blob. I lovely blue and cyan feather swirl and a white like frosty wind image. You open a new doc, put all these blobs and lines on the page, then add motion blur of 430, then put in a transform grid, manipulate the grid and hey presto - your image. Loving it!
I want my magazine to have this additional texture, like 70's but with a etheric flow to it and the 'blow images' are perfect. The brushes element in photoshop seems to be the answer to my prayers. Although the programme takes a lot of playing with, it really is worth it. As I say I can't draw for toffee, but know what I like and what I want. I think photoshop combined with Indesign is the answer.
