			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong> The is an abstract tutorial. I don&#8217;t know if you guys like abstract stuff but i&#8217;ll just give it a go.</strong></p>
<p>Step 1:<br />
Create a new file in Photoshop (File&gt;New) with any size that you want, make sure it is a perfect square. If you want to make it a wallpaper</p>
<p>or something like that, then make it 1024&#215;1024 and then cut it up. Make sure your background is white.</p>
<p>Step 2:<br />
Select the gradient tool from the toolbox (or press g). Make sure it is a linear gradient, the gradient picker is set to Foreground to</p>
<p>Background. and the blend mode is set to Difference. Press D on the keyboard to reset the pallette colours to black foreground and white</p>
<p>background.</p>
<p>Step 3:<br />
Go wild. Keep drawing gradients on the image about 20 to 30 times..</p>
<p><img src="http://www.cooljeba.com/tutorials/photoshop/images/soft_abstract/abstract19vq.jpg" height="364" width="350" /></p>
<p>Step 4:<br />
Duplicate your layer by going to Layer&gt;New&gt;Layer via copy or by pressing Ctrl+J. Rename the newly created layer &#8220;wave&#8221;.</p>
<p>Step 5:<br />
Click and select the original layer (not warp) and go to Filter&gt;Distort&gt;Twirl. Give it a twirl of about 340 or so.</p>
<p>Step 6:<br />
The Click and select the &#8220;wave&#8221; layer and go to Filter&gt;Distort&gt;Wave and use the settings given below. You can try your own but these worked for me. Click Randomise a few times till you find it desirable. then click ok.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.cooljeba.com/tutorials/photoshop/images/soft_abstract/abstract25hb.jpg" height="315" width="350" /></p>
<p>Step 7:<br />
Set the blend mode in the layers pallette for the &#8216;wave&#8217; layer to &#8220;lighten&#8221; and then merge the two layers together by Pressing Ctrl+E or by</p>
<p>going to layers&gt;Merge down.</p>
<p>Step 8:<br />
Duplicate the layer and go to Edit&gt;Transform&gt;Flip Horizontal. Change the blending mode of the new layer to Lighten.</p>
<p>Step 9:<br />
Then hit ctrl+U or Image&gt;Adjustments&gt;Hue/Saturation to bring up the hue/saturation box. Select colourise and then play around with the colour</p>
<p>settings. I used:<br />
Hue: 0<br />
Saturation: 25<br />
Lightness: 0</p>
<p>Step 10:<br />
Now select the other layer and go to the Hue saturation menu again.<br />
Select colourise and change the settings again. I used:<br />
Hue: 220<br />
saturation: 25<br />
Lightness: 0</p>
<p>Step 11:<br />
Merge the two layers together by pressing Ctrl+E and that&#8217;s it. The end result is totally random but here&#8217;s mine: <img src="http://www.cooljeba.com/tutorials/photoshop/images/soft_abstract/abstractfinal8hg.jpg" alt="Soft abstract" border="0" height="416" width="396" /></p>

<p><img src="http://www.cooljeba.com/tutorials/photoshop/images/abstract_art/original.jpg" height="217" width="289" /></p>
<p>Step 1: Open any Previous image (Probably with mild colours e.g. Scenery, Grass etc)<br />
Step 2: Filter &#8211;&gt; Stylize &#8211;&gt; Wind (Wind, From the Right/Left)<br />
Step 3: Press Ctrl+F to repeat&#8230; Press again if you want</p>
<p>Step 4: Filter &#8211;&gt; Distort &#8211;&gt; Polar Coordinates (Rectangular to Polar)<br />
Step 5: Filter &#8211;&gt; Stylize &#8211;&gt; Wind (Wind, From the Left/Right)<br />
Step 6: Press Ctrl+F to repeat&#8230; Press again if you want<br />
Step 7: Filter &#8211;&gt; Distort &#8211;&gt; Polar Coordinates (Rectangular to Polar)<br />
Step 8: Filter &#8211;&gt; Stylize &#8211;&gt; Wind (Wind, From the Right/Left)<br />
Step 9: Press Ctrl+F to repeat&#8230; Press again if you want</p>
<p>Step 10: Filter &#8211;&gt; Distort &#8211;&gt; Polar Coordinates (Polar to Rectangular)<br />
Step 11: Press Ctrl+F (Once only!)<br />
Now you should have a nice image&#8230;<br />
Press Ctrl+U to open up &#8220;Hue/Saturation&#8221; and change the hue to get nice effects.<br />
You can also press Ctrl+I to invert the image to get more effects.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.cooljeba.com/tutorials/photoshop/images/abstract_art/final.jpg" height="217" width="289" /><br />
Also experiment with the number of times you do the polar Coordinates to three or more,<br />
But remember to restore the image by using the same filter but in reverse i.e. Polar to Rectangular the exact same number of times you did the first.</p>
