COLORED PENCIL COLORED PENCIL SKETCH SKETCH PHOTOSHOP PHOTOSHOP TUTORIALTUTORIALBy: Mrs. Hurd

STEP 1STEP 1• Open image in

Photoshop

• When you have your image open in Photoshop the first step is to desaturate by hitting ctr + shift + u or Image > Adjustments Desaturate.

STEP 2STEP 2• You should have a

black and white picture, duplicate it by right clicking on it and select Duplicate Layer.• Now you should

Invert the new layer by hitting ctrl + i or Image > Adjustments > Invert.

STEP 3STEP 3• Set the blending

mode of the inverted layer to Color Dodge in the layer blending mode dropdown.This should make the entire picture almost completely white.

STEP 4STEP 4

• Go to Filter > Blur > Gaussian Blur and select a radius from a few pixels up to about 30 pixels that looks good for you. I used a radius of 25.4 pixels.

STEP 5STEP 5• Now you have a black and white pencil sketch

which looks good, but it can be further enhanced by adding a subtle color to it.• Go to Image > Adjustments > Hue/Saturation

and check the colorize checkbox. Now you can control the color and the strength of the color with the Hue and Saturation handles.
