This is part four in a five part series where I walk through the process of how I create a forest background for my digital paintings.  In episode four, we cover how to create texture for the ground using Photoshop custom grass brushes, where to apply bunches of grassy areas to create depth and focus, and detailing foreground elements.

Since DA has a limit on upload size, I had to reduce the resolution quite a bit.  The original canvas size was 16x24 at 300 DPI (7200x4800 px).

I'm using Photoshop CC in this tutorial but the brushes and most of the tools I use can be used in many other versions and even other drawing programs.  The tablet I'm using in this video is a Wacom Cintiq 24 HD.
