                Sorry for not replying earlier.when I say splatter I mean any image of watercolour drops or you can use any colourful image and blur it.I have attached one which i normally use as an overlay.the idea is that by blurring the image the colours bleed into each other and this image can then be blended using softlight
                or overlay with opacity reduced to 40%.The way I use it is that if I have an area of red/orange in my original image i will use the attached image as is to accentuate the colours.if I have a blue/purple area i will invert the attached image.Sometimes I will use the blue/purple colour over a red colour which helps to add contrast.Normally the blurred image is scaled and positioned around the base image and also selectively erased.Finally once I have the image finished in photoshop I will then take it through fotosketcher a second time and overlay once more in photoshop.It sounds complicated but by having a base photoshop file ready with all the coloured blurred layers set up I only have to drag my original file in and most of the work is done.
                I hope this makes some sense!

                    Yeah, David, makes a lot of sense. And taking it thru FotoSketcher a second time to bring it all together is genius! Thanks so much for sharing! Best, Tom.

                          Warm. Cozy. Inviting. It makes want to grab a cheese plate and bottle of wine along with some pleasant company and low, soft music... and park myself there until bedtime.
