How you can Create a Neon Gentle Impact in Photoshop

How to create a neon light effect in Photoshop

In today’s Photoshop tutorial, I’m going to show you how to create a vibrant visual effect by adding neon lights to a photo. This popular art style often includes simple shapes or texts for the neon lights that are illuminated in bright colors. I’m going to explain how to use Photoshop to draw a custom shape and add a vibrant glow using Photoshop’s Layer Style options. Then we use a clever technique to give the original photo a colorful ambience, as if it were one lit by the new light source. As a finishing touch, we’re also going to add some smoke and particle effects to create a neat cyberpunk piece of art with a futuristic steamwave style.
