Brighten those stormy skies by learning how to add a rainbow to your image with Photoshop! A step-by-step tutorial for Photoshop CC 2020.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Written by Steve Patterson.<\/div>\n

In this tutorial, I show you how to add a colorful, realistic rainbow to an image with Photoshop. To create the rainbow, we'll use one of Photoshop's built-in rainbow gradients. I'll show you where to find the gradient and how to load it into Photoshop.<\/p>\n

From there, you'll learn the fastest way to add the rainbow gradient to your image, and the easiest way to position the rainbow exactly where you need it. We'll blur the colors so they blend together more smoothly, and we'll hide the rainbow from different areas using a layer mask. Finally, we'll finish off the tutorial by learning an advanced yet easy way to blend the rainbow in with the clouds!<\/p>\n

To follow along, you'll want to be using Photoshop CC 2020 or later. You can get the latest Photoshop version here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Here's an example of what the final rainbow effect will look like when we're done:<\/p>\n\"How\n
