I have already created some tutorials about watercolor effects; however, I also want to create a workflow that is extremely simple but that produces a beautiful result. Therefore, I invented this tutorial, which uses only basic watercolor brushes, a photo, and a layer mask.
This tutorial is part of a series of tutorials I have been writing for Pixelmator and posting over at http://www.pixelmator.com/learn/
The wallpaper of this week is a very cool design created by Matt Venhuizen, a graphic and web designer from Ontario, Canada. Matt runs a design studio called Venhuizen Studios. Matt sent the wallpaper suggestion via email and you can do the same ;)
For more information visit Matt's profile on Behance and stay tunned because the new Venhuizen Studios website will be up very soon.
The book suggestion of this week is Illusive 2: Contemporary Illustration and Its Context. This book is really inspiring, there were some amazing illustrations and you can spend ours checking them out. Another amazing thing about this book is that you can always go back and there will always be something new.
