A quickly thrown together tutorial just to show the practical applications of Gradient Maps for painting purposes.

I would still do some paint overs or even use multiple gradient maps to get your desired colored effect. But this is a good way of quickly getting a LOT of color experimenting done in like a minute. This is about as close as Photoshop gets to a “make art” button.

I hope you folks find this helpful!

Wow.

I don’t usually do a gray-scale version first (it’s sketch —> paint) but for quickly throwing color options out there, this has a LOT of uses. Hell, I may find myself using it at work. Need a coherent theme? Convert your images to grayscale and play with gradient maps. Nifty.

Something a little more personal.

Since my move to California, there had been a lot of self-doubt about my level of talent and whether or not I should have made the choices I’ve made leading up to this point. As I’ve said in this, even when it seems as though everything’s not going well, life has a way of turning things around when you work hard enough to make that happen.

Even though what I’m saying is pretty much general knowledge, I made this more for myself than anyone else…but it’s something I hope someone could look at now and later. To remind themselves of their potential, whether they believe they have it or not. I myself still have a ways to go, but I continue creating art and remaining more hopeful than ever.
