Creating a new layer to start from something will be very reasonable.

Choose a color for the background – it’s not always has to be white or black – right?

Now I’m beginning to create medium size shapes. I’ve chosen the elliptical shapes to be on my design so it probably means that a good way will be to stick to rounded angle shapes. I’ve also changing the color a little bit.

Well: looks quite ok I think. It stands out and has great color variation.

Now create a new layer on the top of all and fill it with orange to transparency gradient, from left to right.

the final element will be the brush that I really like – I don’t

The
corner location of the text gives us a great possibility to flip the

here I guess. So I really hope you found something interesting for
