Visualisations for Abstract prints

How to Visualise prints in photoshop 

This technique helps to show a more realistic visualisations, this is because it shows shadows and lighting. This helped me to display my wallpaper in different spaces and how lighting and shadowing can effect the look of my wallpaper. 

    Get an image that you want to put print onto 

    Then put your print pattern over the area you  would like to visualise this

Then click onto the layer of the print and click onto the vector mask tool. Then with the vector mask selected press command and delete button.

  

when this setting option pops up make sure to select the contents as 'white' 

Then grab the laso tool and go around the area you want the pattern to show. Then whilst on the layer of your vector mask selected press shift delete and your pattern should only be show where your laso area is. 

Now click onto your background layer and duplicate this layer and then drag the layer as the top layer and created a clipping mask on this layer. 

Double click on your mouse and select create clipping mask on your duplicated background layer 

With the layer selected change the blending mode to multiply and your image should be darker but the pattern will appear again. 

Duplicate the background layer again and drag this layer to the top again 

now for the blending mode selected 'screen' your print should appear light

Then click command layers and move the layers down until your happy with how your print looks 

Then click command layers and move the layers down until your happy with how your print looks
