Tutorial Thursday: Watercolor Effect

This tutorial result is prep work for a larger project I am currently undertaking.  I am not sure if it produced the result that I will use in the final project, but it was worth a try.  I didn’t invest much time in this one either.  Check out Abduzeedo’s original on the tutorial: http://abduzeedo.com/super-cool-watercolor-effect-10-steps-photoshop.  The picture I used was a picture I took last summer of the Shenandoah River.  A landscape picture would work best for this.  The grunge texture is once again by Bittbox: http://www.bittbox.com/freebies/free-high-res-grungy-paper-textures, and the watercolor brushes I used are his too: http://www.bittbox.com/freebies/free-hi-res-watercolor-photoshop-brushes-set-ii
