Proof of life
We’re very sorry we’ve been so quiet here of late, life has a way of getting in the way of photography and texturing. Flypaper is however very much alive and well and we are in fact working on a lovely new pack right now so watch this space!
Blossom Magic
We hope you’re all having fun conjuring up some magical images with our new Alchemy textures! I’ve discovered they work particularly well as backgrounds, they’re great to use in still lifes for example, they’re also good and adding interest to skies. So I thought I’d try them out on this recent cherry blossom photo.

Vintage Seed Packet Labels
We love collections here at Flypaper HQ and as we’re both keen gardeners we were delighted to come across these two huge sets of vintage French seed pack illustrations at a local flea market store in Burgundy, France.
These scrumptiously coloured labels were printed from the mid to late 1800’s using a rich multi-layered chromolithograph printing process that ceased being used over 100 years ago so they are now almost certainly out of Copyright.
Between a rock and a hard place
Because of Covid restrictions, I’ve been going through my back catalogue and came up with this image from 10 years ago, taken at the base of the chalk cliffs on the edge of England’s Eastbourne on the south coast.
Luminar ai sky
Before the bleak mid-winter sets in, or high summer for our lucky Oz/Nz fans, we thought you’d like to hear about this fab new Luminar ai app which is a stand-alone app and/or works with Photoshop and Lightroom to breathe new life into your boring or blown-out skies, filling negative space from a list of included skies that come pre-packed inside the app or upload your own skies
Canvas Texture Selection Launch
After receiving many requests over the years for an artist’s canvas themed pack we finally pulled this selection together from all our packs and then created almost half as many more new textures, filling gaps in the collection with natural burlap, rough dark linen, tinted canvas and much more.
