Blend modes
Blend two colors using Blend modes affect the color of the top layer by combining it with the color of the bottom layer in various ways. Depending on the blend mode used, the colors can be mixed, replaced, inverted, or modified in other ways.
resulting in a darker color. sIn contrast, in the Screen blend mode, the inverse color of the top layer is multiplied by the inverse color of the bottom layer, resulting in a lighter color.
The Overlay blend mode combines both Multiply and Screen blend modes, creating an image with both darker and lighter areas. This blend mode works by darkening the colors where the top layer is dark and lightening the colors where the top layer is light.
The Color blend mode changes the hue and saturation of the bottom layer to match the hue and saturation of the top layer.
In contrast, the Luminosity blend mode changes the brightness of the bottom layer to match the brightness of the top layer.
By experimenting with different blend modes and layer combinations.
designers and artists can achieve a variety of color effects and create unique and interesting images.
A blend mode specifies how the colors of a layer interact with the colors of the layers below it.
There are several blend modes available, each of which can produce different results. Some of the common blend modes are:
- Standard: This blend mode simply places the top layer over the bottom layer, with no blending.
- Multiply: This blend mode multiplies the color of the top layer with the color of the bottom layer. sresulting in a darker image.
- Screen: This blend mode multiplies the top layer’s inverse color with the bottom layer’s inverse color, resulting in a lighter image.
- Overlay: This blend mode combines both Multiply and Screen blend modes. so, resulting in an image with both darker and lighter areas.
- Soft Light: This blend mode lightens or darkens the colors of the bottom layer, depending on the color of the top layer.
- Hard Light: This blend mode combines both Screen and Overlay blend modes, resulting in a high-contrast image.
- Color: This blend mode changes the hue and saturation of the bottom layer to match the hue and saturation of the top layer.
- Luminosity: This blend mode changes the brightness of the bottom layer to match the brightness of the top layer.
These blend modes, along with others.
give designers and artists a wide range of options to experiment with and create unique and interesting images.
