This lesson I'll show you how to represent colored ornaments from the smoke by choosing a prepared set of brushes and certainly, the possibilities of the Photoshop program.

For the beginning, open a new file of the necessary size: File ? New (ctrl+n)



Then paint the background's layer in white, selecting the Paint Bucket Tool.



Download now the brushes of the smoke shape (they may be downloaded

and here: http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/29341959/

Select the Brush Tool of black color and create a new layer: Layer ? New ? Layer.
All that we have to do now is representing the ornament.
First represent a dot with one of the brushes.



Then pass to another window Filter ? Liquefy (shift+ctrl+x) and choose the Turbulence Tool to add in the pictured smoke more curves.
