Overlays, overlays, overlays. I am obsessed. They are just so fun to mess around with, and using them, you can completely transform an image. Simple forms from my sketchbook come alive with overlays, and this time instead of using only textures, i used a photo. I also included a cropped version, in which i think the composition my be more balanced, and a 2nd edited version.
