Photoshop genius Erik Johansson teaches us how he creates his artwork from YouTube

Having YouTube allows us to access how certain design professionals work, apart from being able to attend hundreds of tutorials to be before the most advanced techniques of the moment. We are lucky in our days, that having a little curiosity and desire we can be self-taught without having to spend good money in the best schools, although these come in very handy to create contacts throughout the years of teaching.

Erik Johansson is one of those Photoshop masters who shows us his skills and almost infinite creativity with those projections that he makes in a way that leaves us hardly speechless with some of his creations. We have already seen him go through these lines previously but today we are lucky enough to access each of the videos of his most famous illustrations, in which to see the creative process carried out.

These are from the times that we are perplexed observing how a designer of this professionalism is playing here and there in Photoshop to go creating those optical illusions and those photo manipulations of great quality and imagination.

Magic could call them if we weren't looking at those videos on YouTube that show behind the scenes and all the creative process he uses to get to that finished work.

Aside from its extensive use of Photoshop, his videos also show how real and imaginary worlds are infinitely mixed in your photos. For most of your surreal photos, you have to photograph different elements of the photos in real life before you start combining them and creating the necessary layers in Photoshop.

Simple solutions like a bottle or rolled paper, will transform into his surreal work before our eyes. You can access their website erikjohanssonphoto.com, on Facebook, on Instagram and Twitter.
