Photoshop: Create Powerful, ABSTRACT Expressionist Portraits from PHOTOS.

Photoshop CC 2023 tutorial showing how to create the look of powerful abstract expressionist portraits from photos. IMPORTANT: At 11:25 in the video, an alternate way to add a textured background behind your portrait is to open a texture as a new document. Drag it onto your portrait document and size it up. Make sure the texture background is placed just below the folders in the Layers panel.
