September 2015 - Technique Challenge -- Gradients

[Dalis]

Hi everyone! This month I was thinking of challenging you to use Gradients. I love using gradients to my brushes and sometimes I even do one and blend it to my background. There are so many ways you can use a gradient.

I created a 10 min video of a few ways you can use gradients and a trick to create gradients using default gradients. I am also going to leave you with a link to a great Photoshop Help page that talks more about Gradients.

This example uses an older M3 kit but I wanted to show the gradient background that I used. I made a background gradient and then blended it into a pattern paper.
