You have a knack for explaining things. There are so many tutorials that are great tutorials save for the terrible explanations. I'll be looking for more of your tutorials! AMAZING tutorial.

Must practice! But very good tutorial :) Thank you!! Do you have any tutorials on how to create the above flourish with buds sprouting from the branches and then flowers blooming? I've always wanted to learn how to do that. It's so beautiful and would love to create that for my website :) Mine didn’t come out so good. Must practice! But very good tutorial :) Thank you!!

This tutorial forced me to learn new techniques with the pen tool that I can now use in photoshop!! The tutorial was very well written and I followed (as a beginner) with no problems. The only part I didn't understand fully was the step #26/27. But this mattered not, as I know photoshop I played a little with some fx and added my own touches. Did you mean to rasterize the vectors in 26/27? I rasterized and made the multiply layer which of course simply darkened the swirl effects. I use CS4, maybe there was a compatibility difference for these steps. Anyhow - GREAT tutorial - I learned LOADS.

I don't know if this is new or how I stumbled on it but it was a better tutorial than I got in class at the art institute. Thanks so much!
