Create an Organic effect using Photoshop

We'll make a plain document and then with use of filters and other tools make a really interesting, organic looking effect.

Create a new document with random size.

I have made a document with 1024 x 768 pixels.

Then press D key to select black color and press Alt (Option on Mac OS) + Delete keys to fill the document with black color.

After that create a new layer.

Click on Set foreground color and select a red color.

After that select the Gradient Tool (G).

Above set the Reflected Gradient (see the picture) and from red to transparent.

Make two gradients like I did.

Click on Set foreground color.

Click on H (Hue) field and higher the value to 50 (see the picture).

Click OK when done.

Make two random gradients with new color.

Click again on Set foreground color and higher the H(Hue) value for 50 again.

Click OK when done.

And make again two new gradients like I did.

Continue doing the same thing till Hue (H) is set to value 350.

If you will have problems, just don't hesitate to ask questions on our forum.

Press Ctrl (Command on Mac OS) and E keys to merge layers.

Create a new layer again.

Repeat the steps 5 to 10 again.

After that set the blending mode to Difference on layer above.

Current view.

Press the Ctrl (Command on Mac OS) and U keys to open Hue / Saturation window.

First select the Colorize option and set the Saturation to 50 (see the picture).

Click OK, when done.

Click above on Filter, Artistic and choose Plastic Wrap...

Then set the same settings like I did and click OK button.

We are finished.
