Celebrating Halloween, Marcos Torres will show us how to create a sort of creepy composition playing with some textures, photos and blend modes in Photoshop. The name of this piece is called Sisters and it's perfect for this halloween time.
Step 1
First off, open Photoshop and create a new document. This new document should have 1680 x 1050 pixels. Now, I used an image of a wood texture, you can download it here. Open the photo and paste it on the 1680 x 1050 canvas.
The wallpaper of this week is an image created by Richard Roberts an US based freelance illustrator and designer. He has been illustrating digital for over six years and has had the pleasure of working with clients world wide. Richard is a very diverse artist using an array of different styles and techniques and always strives to push the limits of his work.

The book suggestion of the week is a must have for those willing to design nice web sites and pretty much anything. It is called Ordering Disorder: Grid Principles for Web Design (Voices That Matter) and as the name says it is all about grid systems or the principles behind it.
