Happy New Year!  The start of 2013 is the 7th month of the of the Texture Club.  I’m very blessed that I get to see the wonderful creative work the you all have posted on my Facebook page that uses my textures, actions and other goodies.  Thanks so much!

The Texture Club is a place for artists, photographers and designers to get some of the most unique textures, presets, etc. on the web.  I wanted to make it affordable, accessible, and fun.  I think I’ve done just that.  The club is $10/month.  For that $10, you’ll get at least 15 new textures, plus any other tools I create during the month.  I’ll add to the club as I create new things.

Here’s what you’ll get when you join in January:

To start the new year, I’ve created the following:

• 25 unique, super high resolution (18×12″ at 300DPI) textures that you can use as layers in your favorite photo editing application.  They’re standard JPEG files and can be used any layers compatible application like Photoshop, Elements or even free tools like The GIMP.   This month I focused a little more on traditional warm and cool tones.  These textures will work well on portraits, nature and just about any other type of work you can think of.
• 9 new color and light vignette overlays.  These overlays can be used like a texture in various blending modes.  They’ll add a unique light and color emphasis to your work.  I hope you enjoy them!

Everyone has been so supportive of my work and the Texture Club, and I wanted to give back.  To show my appreciation for all of you, I’m releasing a new free set of high resolution fine art textures.  These textures are different than many of my other offerings as they are hand painted and do not use photographic elements.  They’re the same super high, 18×12″ 300 dpi, resolution as my paid textures.  Feel free to use them for your commercial work and share them with your friends.  Please also feel free to share the work you create with them on my Facebook page.

October is the fourth month of the Texture Club and I’m happy to say that all have kept it growing strong! I love seeing the beautiful work the you all have posted on my Facebook page.  Thanks so much!.
