Markers Drawing from Photo

The new task I'll show you how to represent a marker's drawing, using a usual photo.

Open firstly the necessary photo in a new window: File – Open (ctrl+o)



Increase its contrast a little, applying next selection: Image – Adjustments – Curves (ctrl+m).



Apply the corresponding filter also: Filter – Artistic – Poster Edges.



Then mark out the background, using the Magic Wand Tool and Polygonal Lasso Tool to make it a little brighter: Image

– Adjustments – Brightness/Contrast.



Move off the markings (ctrl+d) and select for this layer next command: Image – Adjustments – Threshold.



We've got too sharp lines, which is why we have to blur them out a little with Filter – Blur – Gaussian Blur.



Copy this layer: Layer – Duplicate Layer (ctrl+j) and move the copy under the basic layer containing the contours. Then process the layer with Filter – Artistic – Cutout.
