02/22/2016 - Quiet Morning At The Shore

The Daily Texture for 02/22/2016
​Quiet Morning At The Shore

Quiet Morning At The Shore Texture Background
Today's Daily Texture gives you a fabulous beachy background to use for some of your favorite subjects!  My original intent was to place one of my shore birds in this painterly ocean scene.  As I was looking through my files, I found a photo of these two little Shih Tzu pups I shot last year.  Here's the original photo:

Morning Run At The Beach dog art
I could just see these little cuties running "on the beach", so I decided to work them in with this texture.  First, I masked away their background and leashes.  I was able to get them blended easily with the texture background, but their color was off.  I placed the texture on top as a separate layer, and set it to multiply at 25% and then added another layer of the texture on top, setting it to soft light at 50%.  But, I still couldn't seem to get the dogs color adjusted to match correctly.  Plus, they were a little bit noisy.
At that point, I decided to merge everything and take the merged image into Topaz Impression.  I found a preset I'd made with very small brush strokes, and I ran this preset on them.  This preset adjusted the color of the entire image, giving the dogs and the beach all similar tones.  Which brings me to the point that Topaz Impression isn't just good for painting...it's good for making two separate images blend together more evenly, both with brushstrokes and color.  I just love that program!
Like this texture/background?  Buy it here for only $2.50.  Commercial Use OK.
