Misty Memories – Colorful Manipulation Tutorial

Final result

This is an intermediate-level tutorial about creating a simple scene by bringing in and blending various stock images to portray a happy, innocent childhood by making a colorful, sun-lit scene plus adding elements and effects associated with childhood memories.

You’ll learn how to add depth of field by applying blurred effect to illustrate a moment from the past and also how to work with different filters to achieve an oil painting- like result.

What inspired me to create this art was the fact that we all love to take a moment to look back and smile at those happy days and feel connected with one’s inner child and to sketch that feeling through a visual medium of art.
