Hi,

Is anyone aware of a tutorial or filter for creating a pop art effect in Pixelmator? Plenty exist for Photoshop, but as I'm neither a Photoshop expert or a Pixelmator one I'm having trouble translating from one product to another.
The effect I'm trying to do is like this:

I found a couple posts talking about a pop art filter in Pixelmator, but my copy doesn't seem to have it. Maybe it was removed at some point?
Thanks!

Did you ever learn how to make Warholesque art in Pixelmator?

Hi there, I did not. I ended up taking a bunch of photos using Photo Booth's "Pop Art" filter, then compositing them in Pixelmator. Kind of clunky, but it worked for my purposes (creating a New Year's card for the family).

If you ever figure out how to do it, I'd sure appreciate you sharing what you learned. :smile:

Good luck!

It sure would be nice if the developers would add that Pop Art effect back to PP. Why not?

Alternatively, it would be nice if support (or someone) would make a tutorial how to create that Pop Art effect from scratch.
