From Photo To Drawing

In this easy tutorial i will learn you how to change a normal photo in a drawing. This can be done in a lot of ways.

But personally I think this is the best one. But anyway, let's start!

Take this picture and open it in photoshop (you can use of course a picture of your own)

Step 1

Or just type: Ctrl + Shift + U like you see, our picture is now black/white.

If you did it right, this is what you have now:

Step 2

Duplicate the layer:

Step 3

Now, goto: Image -> Adjustments -> Invert or just type Ctrl+i

This is what you have now:

Step 4

Change the layer to Color dodge:

The end

Congratulations, you just made a photo look like a drawing!!

I hope you enjoyed my first tutorial on this site.

If there are some language mistakes, i'm sorry about that but that's because i live in belgium. Our official language is Dutch, French. So all my english i learn, is from games, photoshop, tv, music. So i hope you understand that.

Have a nice day!!
