Switch the width value to 2000px and make sure that “constrain  proportions” is checked. We have resized the image because too large and  it could be more difficult to find a texture of the same size. <img src="http://wegraphics.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/face1.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> Step 2 With the Lasso tool select the head of the lady and add a layer mask  (click on the “add layer mask button” at the bottom of the layer’s  window). Layer mask is the best way to isolate an object without lose  pixels. This is not a simple argument for Photoshop beginners, and I  suggest you to read some articles about this topic that is fundamental  if you want to seriously work with Photoshop. <img src="http://wegraphics.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/face2.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> Step 3 Select the lady’s layer (not the mask) and go to  Image>Adjustments>Threshold. Put 90 as threshold value. Now you  can use the erase tool to eliminate unwanted pixels, or (the better  method) select the mask and remove unwanted pixels with a black brush.  (When you use layer mask, black eliminate while white restore the  image). <img src="http://wegraphics.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/face3.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> Step 4 The aim of this step is to isolate black parts of the image. So make  sure to have black as foreground color and go to select>Color range.  Set fuzziness to 200 and hit OK. <img src="http://wegraphics.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/face4.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> Step 5 In the Paths window click on the right arrow and select Make Work  Path with tolerance 1,0. Now in the layer window create a new layer,  grab the pen tool and right click on the canvas>Fill Path. Call this  layer “lady black” and hide the other lady’s layer. Voila! White has  disappeared. You can also delete the path. <img src="http://wegraphics.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/face5.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> Step 6 Create a new layer and with a black brush start painting over the  white parts in the hair of the lady. Also create a new layer, fill it  with white and place it below the “lady black” layer. <img src="http://wegraphics.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/face6.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> Step 7 Create a new layer and use splatter brushes to paint around the hair of the lady. This is my result: <img src="http://wegraphics.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/face7.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> Step 8 Paste in the texture. At this point we have to play again with  selections and layer mask: with the texture layer selected, ctrl+click  on the “lady black” layer to select its pixels. Then shift+ctrl+click on  the layers where you’ve painted on with the brushes to select also  their pixels. You should obtain something like this: <img src="http://wegraphics.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/face8.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> Step 9 Add a layer mask to the texture layer. Now you can hide all the other layers except the white background. <img src="http://wegraphics.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/face9.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> Step 10 Now we can add a gradient adjustment layer (click on the “create new  adjustment layer” at the bottom of the layer window and select  “gradient”). You can choose one of the default gradients or create a new  one with the colors you prefer. Set the gradient layer to overlay.  Finished!</blockquote>
