February 2015 Free Fine Art Texture!

This new texture can be used as part of your commercial and personal artwork.

The jpg file is 300 dpi and measures 12 inches wide x 9 inches tall. This fine art texture was created by using two or three different photos of various elements that I took last year.

I created the image on the left, called Reflection, using this new texture.

I had taken this photo a couple years ago at Onondaga Lake in Central New York. I placed the image on a layer above the texture and set the layer to “Soft Light” at 100% opacity. Next I removed the bottom of the image that extended into the darker area of the texture.

Next I duplicated that layer, flipped it over and positioned it slightly so that it overlapped the first layer, and erased any hard edges along the top of the image. Then I changed that layer to black and white. I also changed the bottom part of the texture to black and white – doing that seemed to add a nice bit of drama!

Enjoy using the texture!

Please do not share the file directly, and please do not add my texture file to a package you intend to distribute for free or on that you or anyone else intends to sell. Please feel free to invite your texture loving friends to this site for free textures and tutorials!
