        The process tutorial is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LiQXfhHIv2w
        You can download the background texture here it's at the bottom of the page: http://grutbrushes.com/photoshop-freebies/
        You can download the brush I used here: https://gumroad.com/l/iULHC

        I turned the water color background into a seamless texture and followed the process in the video using it as the texture for the group file. Then I put a copy of the texture on the bottom layer for a background.

                            @lilyhosegood I love how soft your piece came out. The subtle glow is nice too. Very beautiful.

                                      It's so fun seeing everyone's and how different they all are.

                                      Here's my entry! She's a merMAID... with her algae-eating fish "vacuum" and jellyfish "duster".
                                      Thanks SVS for hosting this contest! Not only did I have a lot of fun illustrating it, but it gave me inspiration for a writing prompt too! 🙂
