When I try this in latest Beta update, it just creates this blue abstract background. I'm not sure if I have a wrong setting?

Same for me in both the current version and the beta

Thank you! I have an immediate use for this!

This is a great video. I gave it a try with some of my pictures. I found that typing in things like pencil drawing and the right number works great.

Can't wait to try this out! Thanks for all your videos.

Great, now can you show us how to do this without Artificial Intelligence?

Absolutely! Check out this learning path: phlearn.com/tutorial/learning-path-special-effects/ It includes tutorials that teach different special effects techniques, including watercolor!

I needed something "different" for a piece of artwork I've been working on for some time. Not to be the finished version generated by AI, but something I could manipulate and extend (in Corel Painter) using my brain and my hands. This technique gave me the starting point. And it's now underway in the direction of my first ideas. So it's a big thumbs up from me

Thank you! This is such a fun technique!

Great video, instruction and technique. Love this.

Not working for me, I tried three times following exactly but it just produces a large blue blob over the whole image.

This is best explanation of the fill /color technique , Boom . thanks

Love the way you teach !!

Cool I can’t wait to try this out!

Excellent!!! Thank U!

This is so cool. Thank you so very much!

Well that was fun! I had no idea it would be that easy. I also tried changing the opacity a little bit on the painting layer, it sometimes looks pretty good if you can see a little tiny bit of the original image, but not so much that it's obvious. Thanks Aaron!

I love your tutorials.

Thank you!

you are amazing man

When i try I get an image with multiple colours as oppose to a blue abstract. Tried all sorts of ways jpeg,raw etc but still the same. I’m using full photoshop not beta

Can you do this on selected areas of the image?

In all honesty as amazing Ai is, the sense of achievement in the final product is gone. I miss the fully loaded tutorials before modern Ai plugged itself into everyone's lives. Pretty deep but it's just my take on it. Aaron, your expertise in the field elevated my design game to the next level and for that, Thank you!

I tried this with a photo in a psd format in 8 and 16 bit depth and could not duplicate this. So I opened a jpg file and tried again. All I got in all instances was an almost solid blue result in every version given me by generate. I was using PS beta. I'd love for this to work for me because it would save me a lot of time. I would like to cut out the subject and then apply this effect to the remaining parts of the photo. I did try that but kept getting the same dark blue result. And they photo itself had very little blue in it. I was using 10% brightness.

Hi Arron, love the video and the effect, I have tried this and can't get it to work for some reason, I am just getting an effect like a smudge....I use windows 11 and tried spelling colour in both ways. Am also using Ps beta 15.10 can you advise. regards Colin Devon Uk

...For anyone interested, I just tried this technique in both Beta and the regular Photoshop...and it does not work in Beta

Hi, I have the current beta in Photoshop, and in the last couple of updates, the technique you describe no longer works on my laptops (it did work previously). The result (even when I have set HSB at 0, 0, 20) is a solidly-filled generative fill. Is there some setting in my Photoshop that I need to set or reset?

@@phlearn Thanks a million for your response! I did try it in the non-beta version and it works wonderfully. Should I (can I) do something to alert Photoshop support that this feature has disappeared in the recent beta versions? It would be a shame to lose this feature as other good features are being added! Thanks again.

Can I enter Quick Mask mode as you did but exit by clicking the icon in the tool bar?

There are shortcuts for all of these steps, as well as actions that do everything up to your specific prompt

tu, i love you!! 🐙🐙

If the generative fill is not in your Photoshop 2024- you may have an old version still on your computer. Delete the 2023 version. Then this tutorial works perfectly! :)

I have worked with this a lot in the past couple days. I get everything to work just like this video, from what i understand this works in Beta only right now? I have used the lower # settings even going down to 5. However even eith that i cant get the detail I would like to see in the watercolor painting look. I have used curve and channel settings and that still doesn't do the detail. I'm looking for something more like the filters but I'm sure yhat AI gen fill is going to get better in the future. Would love thoughts on this. Thanks!

You can blend in the original background to add detail. You can also duplicate the original background layer, move it to the top layer, run a high pass filter and set the blending mode to soft light, overlay, hard light, vivid, or linear light to "sharpen" details that aren't exactly there.

Hey Colin! We are glad you were able to work it out 😊

I opened PS and it did work in there. Not sure why beta version did not work.

Very clever, and worked great for me! I have a feeling that those complaining that it's not working are either using the wrong version of Photoshop or are just not following the steps.

I've tried this several times following Aaron's instructions very carefully. I'm using Photoshop production, not Beta. It is just not working. I am getting random abstract images back that look like fingerpainting. Oh well... at least I tried. lol

You are not getting the desired results simply because your “Quick Mask Mode Options” are set to “Color Indicates: Selected Areas” (instead of Masked Areas). In other words, your Quick Mask Mode settings are currently the total opposite to what Aaron’s Quick Mask Mode settings are. In the beta version the options are default opposite! To fix this you have 2 options: (Option 1): Simply flip the percentages he uses around: so, when he uses 20%, you flip that to 80%. Or if he used 30%, you flip that to 70%, etc. (you get the idea). Or… (Option 2): When you are in the Quick Mask Mode click on “Channels” (next to your Layers tab), then double click on the “Quick Mask” icon in the panel and select “Color Indicates: Masked Areas” then click OK. Then your Quick Mask Mode settings will be the same as Aaron’s settings. Enjoy!

Interesting technique. However, I do not understand how (and don't agree with) the concept that using computer software to make a photo look like a painting makes the photo art, artistic, or fine art (pick one). It seems that photography is presumed to be a bit inferior to painting, which is completely erroneous.

Sorry - it isn't working for me. I've followed your video to the letter six times, but all it does is come up with a random picture not related to my subject. I don't understand.

I tried this method and like others, it does not work. I have been doing this differently. Ctrl-A Select the entire image, then I go into channels. I select a new channel and fill it with 35% grey. Click on new channel to select it, click on RGB channel, then the layers tab, and go into creative fill and type the prompt. "Oil paint."
