Wavy Halftone Photo Effect

This effect plays on optical rhythm — a layered approach that turns photos into editorial-style illustrations. Undulating lines sculpt each portrait into a kinetic study of light and contour, giving the classic halftone a hypnotic spin.

The download includes two high-quality PSD files — one in vertical format, one in horizontal — each equipped with Smart Object layers. It works well for album covers, fashion editorials, book jackets, identity systems, packaging concepts, museum flyers, and stylized social content. It also lends a distinctive texture to monochrome zines, branded merch, or custom print runs.

This resource is created, and fully compatible with Adobe Photoshop. For the best experience, we recommend to use the latest Creative Cloud version of the app.
