Easy Fire Tutorial

  Adding fire to your subject is pretty simple.  I did this in roughly 10 minutes but you can make something really special if you take your time.  You’re basically copy and pasting fire images and using the blend mode, “Lighten”.  I added some splatter here and there to help the effect.  This should be enough to get you started, good luck!

I call this, “Inner Demons” for a minimalist mini series I did. They’re basically representing, “Pain”, “Love” and “Anxiety”. The symbols below are the keys to accessing these demons.

I wanted to go a different route to represent three very important things that everyone associates with and that’s” Love”, “Passion” and “Life”.  The heart is very clear, that it is “Love”.  You always see a traditional heart shape <3 however I went a more realistic/darker route.  Red roses always represent “Passion”.  The rose is probably the most straight forward of the three.  I thought blood splatter for “Life” made a lot of sense and concludes the other two as a whole.  Blood is the life fuel for the heart, passion is what drives it. Cleaner image is below.

Experimenting with acrylic paints to see what kind of splatter effects I can create.  Its entertaining to watch how the paint runs and drys as it progress’s.
