Help! How to extend the lines in the exact same style?

[annekeeg94353325]

Hi all, I'd like to extend the lines/waves to the left (like in the attachment of the watercolor), creating the exact same texture and color gradient. It should resemble a watercolor, but digitally. Any tips are welcome, thanks in advance!

Hey, @annekeeg94353325. Welcome to the Photoshop Community. I'll help you figure this out.

There could be 6 other ways to do this but here is what I just tried to get this result.

Go to the Crop tool and set the crop mode to Generative Expand > Extend the crop overlay from one or two sides and hit crop > go to properties panel & use Enhance on one of the variation you liked the best and repeat. Also, you can switch between the FireFly models to try out which model produces better textures. 

 

Let me know if this helps. Thanks!

Hi @Sameer K thanks for your reply! Sorry I wasn't clear, I need to do it with the blue drawing (forget about the green watercolor that you've used, that was my example of how the image should be twice as wide..). So the blue image that is already in my photoshop (see attachment). Not sure I'm doing the right thing...

@Sameer K Having trouble making it the same style with generative expand..

@Sameer K So I am doing it manually now, but I can't create the same texture, the extension that I make manually, doesn't look like a watercolor in my opinion... you have any advise?

It did this with Generative Fill and the simple prompt 'Continue the pattern'.

All three options were probably usable, but this was the best.

I initially tried it without a prompt and the results were not so good.

The shape of the selection made a big difference.

I have a strong feeling that we are in a 'Watch this space' situation right now, as Terry White has hinted that the full Nano Banana engine is coming to the Photoshop beta version in a week or so.  If it works the same as Nano Banana we won't need to make a selection. Just describe what we need to happen and the Ai will do it.

it's still not quite right, but ill keep on trying 🙂
