Vitamin C

This digital painting showcases techniques in Photoshop, with a focus on utilizing brush settings, blending modes, layer masks, and opacity adjustments to create a polished composition.

Using a reference image, I adopted a multi-layered approach, incorporating clipping masks and adjustment layers to refine colors and enhance depth. Brush hardness, flow, and smoothing were carefully adjusted during blending to achieve seamless transitions.

Key details—like soft light speckles on the fruit, smooth leaf gradients, and the orange’s reflection in the bowl—were created using overlay modes, the smudge tool, and feathered edges to enhance realism.
