how to make artsy geometric aesthetic thingies

today imma show u guys how to make these kinds of backgrounds

okay so ur gonna need two apps for this: Pixlr and Toolwiz (i provided the links there, well for android users anyway, sry if ur on something else)

imma put this on a read more bc this is gonna be kind of long and I’m a Mess

okay so

Step 1 - since this is a tutorial for a specific image im just gonna show u exactly how i made that one. i downloaded this pic from tumblr bc the colors looked pretty (apparently it’s Yosemite national park??? also i can’t find the photographer so, :// sry), choose whatever picture u want bc no one will know what it is further on tbh

Step 2 - then i opened toolwiz and made that picture abstract as hell with the crystal and triangle options, a bunch of times

and anyway i ended up with this

i can’t express how much i love toolwiz, like look at this Cubism level image, i cri. anyway, for now we leave this pic alone

Step 3 - download a blank image from google or somewhere. this is the one that i use bc its super huge (feel free to use this one)

Step 4 - now open this up in pixlr, go to the fist button on the bottom dock, select adjustment and change the exposure to make it grey (it has to be grey enough so that the later effects will be noticeable)

step 5 - go to the third button, click overlay in the center, and scroll until you find the “impala” overlays (they’re so pretty), click on the overlay called idol

step 6 - go back to the first button, go to adjustments, scroll to the end and make the hue red

step 7 - go back to the first button but this time click on double exposure

add the image u made in the beginning on Toolwiz and change the effect to hard light

step 8 - go back to the impala overlays and add the “kiss” overlay

add it again for more color

step 9 - save png image and open it up in Toolwiz (as u can see there is no set process for this, i just got bored and decided to dick around w the effects lmao)

step 10 - open up the art button at then end of the dock and use the first crystal effect (apparently it comes out more polygon-ish once you actually apply the effects so make sure to make the preview look a bit more round than you want)

and the final product ...

it didn’t come out exactly like the original bc im not sure how i did that one exactly lol

but hopefully u get the idea that color is super important and u can make something pretty by just adding a bunch of effects and experimenting !!

some final tips: definitely use double exposure a lot, if u make something pretty use it again on another thing, try using only toolwiz or only pixlr, and i guess most importantly have fun making ur aesthetics!!

Bonus:

or overlay the image you just made!!!

anyway pls tell me if this helped u (srsly, like tag me or leave me an anon, i love knowing that kind of stuff) and ya srry for the ridiculously long post. i hope y’all make some Good Aesthetics tho !!!
