This week during 20% time i found a tutorial that showed me how to do abstract swirls that look like black ink when it hits clear water. This tutorial’s hardest part was when I had to get the right wave setting so that the tutorial came out the way I wanted it to. First I had to create a lens flare and place it in the middle of the image.

Next, I had to make lines with the smudge tool. After that, I had to create waves and mess around witht the image until I got the image I was satisfied with.

Then I had to duplicate the layer and create waves with the duplicated layer.

Next, I had to merge the two layers together. Lastly, I then changed the image to inverted which gave it the cool black and white look.
