Double Exposure Artwork (2nd Attempt)
I was surfing the web earlier today and something caught my attention - Double Exposure Images. The striking contrast and complementary nature of two fused images is rather remarkable.
So I started doing some research and realized that I have some software that can do the trick - Pixelmator. I reviewed this tutorial and then I was off and running.
My first attempt was a great learning experience, but not worth posting for the Steem community. My second attempt was better because I was able to highlight the outlines of the horse well, and the two images I choose worked well together.
Check out the final result:
I used the following images to create the end results
image source - pixabay | image source - unsplash |
Basic Steps to Recreate:
- Remove unwanted color from horse background. I used the Quick Select tool in Pixelmator.
- Decreased the saturation level and increased the lighting level on the horse image.
- Added the second image to the project.
- Selected the second image and choose Create Clipping Mask.
- Reduced the opacity of the second image.
- Repositioned the second image for the best look and feel.
I will definitely be adding more "double exposure" artwork in the future.
Thanks for stopping by!
