Here we’re looking at some of the more advanced layer blending options in Affinity Photo 2. We’ll take the image we worked on in the previous instalment (AP 21 November) and turn it into a textured illustration using free-to-use images from the Stock panel in Affinity Photo and the magic of layer blend modes.
We want to add a female portrait to this image to create a kind of impressionistic collage, and there are plenty of choices right at your fingertips, thanks to Affinity Photo 2’s Stock panel.
