I created a new object in the Objects Manager Docker by clicking on the New Object icon in the bottom left corner of the docker. This way, I had the two blue colors set to create the effect I was aiming for. By selecting the color swatch and hovering over the blue color swatch in the Document Palette, I picked one of the darker blues next to the brighter blue and added this to the palette (or you can drag the darker blue from the default Color Palette down to the Document Palette). FINALLY A BLUE SKYįor the blue sky color I picked a brighter blue color that I like to use as a base for a blue sky. (If the Magic Wand Mask doesn’t pick up all of the sky at the first try, select the Additive Mode icon from the Property bar and click in any missing areas until the whole sky has been selected). With the Grayscale Lens object active, and the sky now even brighter, more white, I picked the Mask Tool > Magic Wand Mask (W), from the Toolbox and selected the white sky. It also made it very easy for me to get a cleaner white sky, making it a bit easier to create a proper mask of the sky, as my aim was to make this blue. I could have used other adjustment tools and features to make it darker, for example Contrast Enhancement or the Tone Curve ( Adjust > Contrast Enhancement or Tone Curve), to mention just a few, but I quite like the feel the grayscale effect gives to a photo, and it´s fast. I dragged the slider handles to give the facade of the building a darker tone. In the Object Manager Docker I picked a Grayscale Lens Object by clicking on the New Lens icon at the bottom left of the docker (or Object > Create > New Lens). Back at the studio in front of my computer I used Corel PHOTO-PAINT X7 and my Wacom tablet to edit and adjust the image. I took this photo while I was out with my bicycle, cycling around a brand new neighborhood in Stockholm, Sweden which is just being built. One of those very common tasks I often wind up doing is to either take a photo myself for the client or use someone else’s photo. In my freelance business as an illustrator and graphic designer I also get to work with photographs, creating both sign- making mockups and image editing in general. In this tutorial I will show you how I created a new blue sky, enhanced a building with color and light and created a mockup sign which I then applied to it.
