Picasso took an unconventional approach to portrait painting. He evoked an impression of his subjects by rendering their face in profile while depicting features like the eyes and nose as if viewed from head on. We can apply this approach to portrait photography to create what are called double exposure portraits. The trick is to convert some standard shots into a creative composite that sums up our subject in an eye-catching way. In this tutorial well demonstrate how to use Photoshops tools to combine both a face-on and profile view of a subject in a single image so that we can summon up more about their identity than we could in a conventional portrait. Well kick off by cropping the start images to make the subjects key features look more prominent in the frame and then add them to a layered document. Youll then use Selection tools to remove unwanted background details before converting the selections into masks. No selection is initially perfect, so well demonstrate how to apply brush strokes to the Layer Masks to hide or reveal particular facial features. Well also demonstrate how to use fill layers to add simplified washes of colour to the shots shadows and highlights to help push the end result in a more artistic direction. 01 CROP THE FACE 02 REMOVE BACKGROUND 03 ADD NEW PORTRAIT 04 ADD A LAYER MASK 05 EDIT THE MASK 06 COLOUR THE IMAGE Photoshop Tip Alternatively, click to place a point near the bottom of the curve and drag downwards to create darker shadows. Place another point nearer the top and drag upwards to brighten the highlights. This will create an S-shaped curve. READ MORE Orton Effect: try this quick soft-focus Photoshop trick
