Add Gradient Abstract Textures to your toolkit if you work on backgrounds or overlays for photos a lot.
Good pick for photographers, illustrators or anyone putting together a portfolio. A small tip: set textures to Multiply or Overlay blend modes and lower the opacity; full strength rarely looks right.
