What does the Spray Paint effect change?

Spray Paint translates photographic edges, colors, and values into the marks and surface behavior of the named art medium, while retaining the source composition. The strength control determines how much of that treatment replaces the unedited appearance.

Which photos work best with Spray Paint?

Choose Spray Paint for poster and album-cover artwork, craft and printmaking references, or product concepts presented as artwork when the source has clear detail and balanced exposure. Start with a lighter setting if it contains low-resolution faces, illegible source text, or photographs whose key identity depends on tiny texture that the chosen medium simplifies.

About the Spray Paint effect

Spray Paint translates source structure into medium-specific marks, surfaces, and color separations rather than applying a stock texture alone. Its intensity control blends the processed output with the uploaded pixels, so the edit can remain restrained or become the dominant look.
