As founder of Anothera, Ren Zhang has been using design programs for around 6 years. What had started as a hobby for him, design and art had became a real passion and a way of life. He has achieved the Graphic Design Diploma qualification and now seeks to improve on his illustration skills.

In our second video tutorial I will show you a cool way to use Actions to create really awesome abstract artworks.

Here’s the experimental result from this tutorial:

Another one using these steps. For this one I used the pen tool to create a round base shape instead. And I manually constructed the structure of it before running actions.
