Have you ever wanted to create your own digital photography art? Well, all you need is a digital camera, photo-editing software, and a computer to create one. Here are a couple of techniques you can use to create your 
own digital photography art. Let’s begin.
Let’s try creating a digital photography pop art to start with. The images of Marilyn Monroe or other popular Andy Warhol art stuff may come to mind. And that’s exactly what we’re trying to go for. Here are some digital photography art techniques that you can do to achieve that kind of look. In this example, let’s make use of the photo-editing software that is popularly known as Adobe Photoshop.
-
The very first thing that you should do is to choose a digital photograph that you’ve taken. Choose something that inspires you. Choose the best digital photograph that you’ve taken and make sure that it’s also a simple and modular image to help you get started. It must be a line art image. Once you have it, open it up in Photoshop.
-
Now, make sure that your image is in RGB mode. If you don’t know how to do it, simply go to the menu bar and choose Image. Select the mode and then choose the RGB color.
-
Once you’re ready, it’s time to add some color to the digital photo. First, create a new layer. To do this, open up your Layers Palette and click on the button at the base that says “Create a New Layer”.
-
Now, at the tool box, choose the Paint Bucket tool. Then, select the option “All Layers” in the tool options bar. It will fill in the areas in your line art.
-
In the toolbox, choose the color for your foreground color and click OK once you’ve selected a color of your liking.
-
Now, go back to the paint bucket tool and click on the area of your image that you want to fill with your selected color. If you have other areas to fill with that color, simply repeat this step.
-
Now, you may choose another color and create a new layer to place that new color. Do as you’ve done in steps four to six until you’ve filled up your image with the colors you wanted.
-
Now it’s time to create your dots, meaning, some of the fills will be turned into dots. To do so, select the layer that you want to convert. Duplicate that layer. You can do so by right-clicking on it and choosing duplicate. Then, hide one of the two same layers. For the other layer, go to filter and then select pixelate and choose color halftone. You can adjust the maximum radius setting from 4 to 127, depending on your preference. It will simply adjust the size of your dots. Once you get the look that you like, you’re done!
