How To Use A Photoshop Filter

A Photoshop filter is one of the easiest and simplest ways to bring a dramatic change to your photograph, and create artistic photography.



To create a colored pencil effect for your photo:

Step 1: In Photoshop click on Filter at the top of your screen. Select Artistic from the pop-up menu (the left red circle in the screen shot on the left). A second menu will pop-up. Select Colored Pencil (the right red circle).

Experiment with Pencil Width, Stroke Pressure and Paper Brightness until you have the desired effect.

Click OK and VOILA! You have a colored pencil caricature of your photo!

You can also experiment with other Artistic options. You may prefer Watercolor, or my favorite, Dry Brush.


Quick Photoshop Tip

I often use a minimal amount of Dry Brush to slightly sharpen a face.
