Making Watery Text

Don’t be afraid of the water, as Roy Scheider and Richard Dryfuss were in that movie about a big fish. This month, Frances Proctor shows you how to do a wet illustration of text—download the freeware font, Liquidism—and click the Download button to get six great stone and wood textures that you use to follow along with our Guest Tutorial video. Turn your messages into (legible) puddles that are also editable to your heart’s content. Say what you have to say in water on a rock; that ought to get someone’s attention!
