Different ways to use textures in Affinity Photo

This week I launched my first photo textures collection, for use with any of your favorite art and design editing apps. A good friend was the first person to purchase and then she immediately asked me how to use them. So I made this tutorial of just a few ways you can use textures in your work. I used Affinity Photo for this tutorial, but the basic premise would be the same in Photoshop as well. Get your hands on STAINED, my new texture collection https://daveconrey.com/products/stain...
