The design you see above is known as typography design, done exclusively in Photoshop
Now what is Typography in Graphic Design
Typography in graphic design is basically, in simple terms, the use of text either to convey or pass a purposeful meaning within a design or an image, but at the same still embodying perfectly the role of a design. Now the use of text for the purpose of designing in Photoshop involves font change and adjustment, adjustment of text size and color as well as alignment and application of effect for the purpose of enhancing the design
Typography in Photoshop is very crucial in graphic design, Photoshop from my experience allows for manipulation and customization of text to produce the desired graphical result.
Judging from the above, I decided to generate various color variations for the pen using the gradient tool allowing for varying degrees of opacity and transparency but still taking advantage of vibrant colors.
The Process
The above typographic design was created from the image of a fountain pen gotten from Pixabay and letters using the text tool in Photoshop 👇
Process outlined
Form a layer mask for the image of the pen, this will allow us to conceal and reveal areas of the pen we don't want and areas we want respectively, that the main purpose of a layer mask
What you do next is to type the required text, in this case ''HIVE LEARNER" using the text tool in Photoshop marked as "T", then align it with the pen, then warp using the warp tool under transform once you select EDIT, this allows it to assume the curvy orientation of the pen and feel like it was printed on the pen rather than pasted on it.
