In the modern media space, form is no less important than content, and often determines it. That is why the graphic design of sites, articles, advertisements and many other resources is very important for the final perception of the project by viewers and visitors. If you want to make the content on your resource really high-quality and beautiful, you can learn how to create unusual and vivid illustrations in Adobe Photoshop.
Instructions
Step 1
Download any decorative font you like from the Internet and install it on your computer. To create a beautiful text illustration, you need a background - for example, a wood texture. To create this texture, create a new image in Photoshop and fill it with a dark brown color.
Step 2
Set the background color to light brown. After filling, go to Filter> Render and select the Fibers option with Variance 12.0, Strenght 34.0. Press the randomization button until you are satisfied with the result.
Step 3
To make the texture deeper, open the Layer menu and create a new Gradient Map adjustment layer with a transition from black to dark brown. Fill the texture with a gradient with the layer blending mode Overlay and opacity 50%.
Step 4
Now create a new CMYK image and paste the created wood texture into it. Write any text in the previously chosen font - for example, the name of your site. Use any colors for the text, as you will replace them with texture later.
Step 5
Open the style settings of the text layer and set the following effects for the text: Drop Shadow, Outer Glow, Bevel and emboss, Stroke with the appropriate color parameters.
Step 6
Create a new layer and click between the new layer and the text layer with the left mouse button while holding down the Alt key to create a Clipping Mask. Fill the new layer with a wood texture, then select the text layer and select the Modify> Contract option, then fill the selection with white and set a Gaussian Blur (Filter> Gaussian Blur).
Step 7
Reduce the layer's opacity to 40%. Erase the bottom edge of the white translucent fill with a soft eraser. Complement the illustration with any decorative graphic elements, blending harmoniously into the overall picture and adjusting with layer style effects.
Step 8
Decorate the illustration with a ready-made ornament that can be painted in any color and placed semi-transparent in the background of your textural lettering.
