Lesson 611
“Hope”
This lesson was written on October 6, 2024 using psp12.
If you are working with a different version of PSP, the settings and filter effects may give a different effect. Play around with the settings until you get the desired result.
This lesson was conceived and written by me. Any similarity is purely coincidental.
In my lessons I use a color scheme
