› › HOW TO

Step 15: Press-and-hold the Command (PC: Ctrl) key
and click on the extracted subject layer’s thumbnail to
load the shape of the subject as an active selection. Then,
go under the Select menu and choose Inverse to flip
the selection to the background. This will prevent you
from revealing the subject on this layer, since we’re
already blending the subject on the layer above with the
texture below.

Step 16: Set your Foreground color to white by pressing D,
and using the same spatter brush, just dab a few spatters
around the subject to reveal the background. Again, use the
Bracket keys to increase or decrease the brush size. Now you
can see we’re still using the background from the original
photo, just in a different way. Press Command-D (PC: Ctrl-D)
to Deselect.

Step 17: In this example, the bottom left of the dress has
been masked out a little too much. Using the same spatter
brush set to white, just dab once or twice on the original
subject’s layer mask to reveal the dress a little more in that
area. Here’s where you can experiment with other brushes
on the mask for different results.

Step 14: Now remember the original subject layer we added
the layer mask to back in Step Seven? Go ahead and click
on the layer mask thumbnail on this layer to make it active.
Also, change this layer’s blend mode to Linear Burn, like we
did with the extracted subject layer.
