The Daily Texture for 08/17/2015
Cool Summer Morning

Cool Summer Morning Texture
Today's Daily Texture is a softer one, with green and neutral browns and tans.  I used this texture with the eagle art below, both as an underlying layer and as a few layers on top with some of each layer masked away to keep the eagle and nest fairly bright and clear.  To further bring the focus to the eagle and to give the image a more dreamlike quality, I took the final merged image {after duplicating it} and ran it through Buz Sim, a Topaz Simplify filter.  This softened everything and gave things a watery, painted look.  I masked some of this layer off the eagle and the nest in the center, but left the filtered effects all around the edges, like a vignette.
Like this texture?  Buy it here for only $2.  Commercial Use OK.
