half drop repeat

To create this kind of a repeat (half drop repeat) I selected the secound column and went on View > Show > Grid, then to View > Snap to > Grid and draged the column down half a block.
I re-sized my marquie tool to 5cm-5cm that I can select one block. Then I copied and pasted it into a single gasp. After I did it to the forth column as well I went to Layer > Flatten image.

mirror repeat

double mirror repeat/pencil draw

First I selected the marquie tool from the tool box and in the specification panel net to the style I selected fixed size and entered 5cmfor the weight and 25cm for the height. Then I went on View > Snap to Grid and selected the second column, because of the grid it is easier to select the a column.
to make it into a mirror repeat I went on Eidt > Transform > flip horizontal. The same I did to the forth column.

After I saved this one I did another one but aslo did the secound and forth vertically. Which gave me another interesting pattern.

I went on filter to make the texture (pencil draw) and also changed the colour because I didn't wanted my repeat patterns to look the same.

block repeat

Using a rose that I made on photoshop and copied it onto another document. I changed the image to 5cm-5cm and checked that the resulution is 150dpi. I went on Image> Canvas size 20cm-25cm.
After that I went on Edit > Fill with pattern >Design then it showed up as a block repeat.












I went on filter and changed the texure of the of my block repeat and then I went on heu/saturation to chage the colour.

motif

Going on filter to change the texture of the background to a soft grain. To smoothen the edges of the tornado I used a normal ereaser.

filter crop

I screanshot the areas from the filter image that I liked the most and tranfered it onto my blogger.

filters

In photoshop I went on filter and tried out different textures. To go to filter I went on menu - artstist. In artstic there area lot of different textures that I could use to manipulate my pictures.

In filters I used the dry brush effect get this texture on this pictur of mine.

With this picture I tried out different textures for a different part for eample:-

• for the rose I used diffuge glow
• for the sea I used plastic wrap
• and for the background  I used soft grain

 

I took out the tonado and took a screenshot because I wanted to know how it would look like.

original scan

To scan my work into the computer I went on image capture. I set the resolution to 150 dpi because I didn't wanted my work to become to big. Also so that I can experiment with my work at a normal pace which I woulded be able to do properly with a bigger resolution than 150 dpi, because a higher resolution than 150 dpi will only make working slower and take longer.
