Paint Your Mountain


	Paint Your Mountain An easy way to paint your “wall” with PhotoShop. Get 2 photos. The one you want to paint ( your Wall) and the “Paint”. The one you want to paint on to it. Load the wall into PS and duplicate the layer. Make the duplicate layer B&W. Adjust the layer to make it contrasty. Next in filters give it a light gaussian blur around (radius 6.2). Now save this layer as a PSD. Name it “Wall Displacement Map” This is an example name. For ease of working get rid of this layer in your document. Next drag your “Paint" into the document as a new layer. Next under filters select distort displace and use the displacement map you created. Have fun! Bob D. Hall
