I’ve seen some very nice images mixing photos with light effects and sparks. If you go to flickr in those Photoshop and Graphic Design groups you will see images with this effect. There’s a designer, I think he's Brazilian, who has some amazing designs using this style, his name is Leandro Demetrius and it’s really worth checking his work out.
Anyway, in this tutorial I will show you how to create an image using this technique.
The wallpaper of this week is an artwork created by Magomed Dovjenko AKA Mago, a freelance Illustrator, Graphic Designer and Art Director from Russia but now based in German. In the past years he has established and proved himself as someone who is steady trying to grow and improve by big steps. He is a proud member of 'The Keystone Design Union'.
The book suggestion of this week is a very inspiring one for those in love with vintage typography, it's called Scripts: Elegant Lettering from Design's Golden Age. It's definitely a book for when you need some extra motivation and inspiration.
About the book
Elegant, quirky, fluid, brutish, ostentatious— a visual resource of cursives and other typefaces that resemble handwriting.
