************ UPDATE*******************

Wow, a DD? Thank you so much AngelYarn for suggesting and to Elandria for featuring And thank you everyone for your kind and in some cases, not so kind words

..........................................

Here is the long awaited Art Nouveau Tutorial for my artwork Iris that has taken me almost a good week to do Sorry guys, there won't be many tutorials, they are a lot of work and makes me appreciate all the artists who donate their time and effort to do these so much more!

Ok before you start, all stock images in the tutorial is from CAStock and from almudena-stock if you want to get the exact ones. Here are the thumbs for them:







Also this is a tutorial that assumes that you have some basic knowledge of Photoshop and how it works, and how to work in layers. I assume you have some vague concept at least about how to cut things out and how to use masks. If you don't know how to do any of these things, you need to find some beginner tutorials in Photoshop before you start or you'll get lost pretty easy.

I used Photoshop CS5, but any photoshop version should be able to do most of the commands in this tutorial.

If you come across something that is very unclear or misspelled, please inform me and i'll try to correct it.

Thank you to for the lovely border I used in the design of the tutorial itself, and many thanks to for the beautiful model I used.

Hope you enjoy!!

Oh, and IF you make an artwork pretty much identical to the one in this tutorial (meaning using the stock i did for the tut) you need to credit me in the description of it when you upload it. If you make an art nouveau piece with completely different stock, look and feel you don't have to credit unless you want to. And don't forget to ALWAYS credit the stock owners you used and follow their individual rules!

this kind of digital art infuriates me. this is not art. this is what you do in kindergarden, sans computer, via scissors and glue. there is no real skill being demonstrated, just simple minded photo manipulations. i would value the finger painting of a three year old over this photoshopped bull shit any day of the week.

LOL You are such a hypocrite I went to your profile and you not only have favourited some digital art you have posted some. Being mostly a traditional artist myself and working for about a solid week on my upcoming piece inspired by this tutorial- it is totally an art- for me I probably used over 20 different people's photos, after carefully clipping them out (which was a difficult task in itself!), artfully arranging them, adjusting the lightness, colour tints, hues, saturations, creating more shaddows and highlights, drawing the hair from scratch, after everything had its place without being too busy the file has become so big its taking about 20 minutes to save to my flash drive every time even with merged and compressed layers, and I haven't even gone over most of the techniques I have used. If even a kindergardener learned how to functionally and artfully use this program I would be absolutely astounded let alone a 3 year old. Lets see you produce some better digital art before you call someone's carrer bs.

And yet, it is still something that was made with a lot of creative mind went, and a lot of work. What are you doing even looking at pictures that 'infuriate' you so? Go back to your cave, troll.

Sorry, my brain has a tendancy to get a little jumbled, not all of us can be disability free, darlin'.
Simply remove the "went" and you're good to go.

look, its just an opinion, it isnt anything personal. i wasnt aiming to start a fight without anyone, i was just expressing what i thought, and yeah, it was harsh, and i can see where your coming from. i completely respect your opinion, sorry for the immature name calling.

TaraFly In reply to princesspumpkinseed [2011-03-22 19:10:22 +0000 UTC]

As someone who has worked in both traditional mediums and with Photoshop, I can honestly say that this piece isn't easy to duplicate. Photoshop gives us certain tools, yes, but it takes an artist to produce something magical with them.

Before dismissing digital art entirely, why not try your hand at it? I think you'll realize that a great deal of work and skill goes into any piece, unless you prefer artists who just "slap some paint" onto a canvas, let it drip down, and call it finished.

slap some paint onto a canvas? really. i might not be that good at it yet, but every painting i have under my belt has been worked on for days and days. what a hypocrite! go ahead and reprimand me for dismissing digital "art", but dont expect me to stop and think about you said after that equally dismissive comment about traditional works.

princesspumpkinseed In reply to IndigoBear [2011-09-13 05:49:06 +0000 UTC]

no worries dude. what i said was way off line. i reacted before even thinking about what i was actually saying, and i have no right to determine for other people whether or not someones hard work qualifies as art. forgive me and my ridiculous impulses. this is pretty old by the way. i changed my mind a while back about digital art, thats why i have some digital art pieces in my favorites. and those digital pics i have in my gallery were for a contest.

amen, i think this also is a good base to start new styles based on history-art, this could be just a little step or advice to somebody to create an awesome new revolution, so every technique is useful if you are open and want to learn and use it for your benefits not jus to imitate
