    Free Texture Friday – Old Books
    



    

    There’s a tiny bookstore near me that has an entire room full of late 19th and early 20th century books, each one typically costs less than a dollar or two. I could spend hours in there searching through the old novels discovering naturally worn paper textures. I also love reading the inscriptions and notes made…

    Free Texture Friday – Muddy Wall
    



    

    I drove out to a wetlands wildlife reserve near where I live and wandered around in the woods for a while looking for textures. I came across this tall hill that looked like it had been sliced down the middle, with the roots showing from the trees that were on top. I thought it made…

    Free Texture Friday – Grey Grunge
    



    

    These textures came from a big manhole cover at the local zoo that had a lot of cool rust and eroded effects. They’re subtle enough to incorporate into many of your designs and illustrations. Enjoy!

    Free Texture Friday – Gritty Paint on Wood
    



    

    Today I got a free set of gritty paint textures on old wood. I found some old fishing boats that are slowly rotting away, and I couldn’t resist. You can never have too many grungy textures, and these will be excellent for backgrounds and overlays. Enjoy and please leave a comment if you like them!

    Free Texture Friday – Cracked Wood
    



    

    I shot this weeks free textures in two different spots: the ceiling of an old gazebo and a decades old shed I found behind a factory around here. I love the texture that peeling and cracked paint gives to wood, it shows so much wear and character. Enjoy!

    Free Texture Friday – Extreme B&W
    



    

    This weeks textures are some of the dirtiest, most grungy ones I’ve made in a while. They’re a combination of watercolor scans, concrete, and dirty paper textures that were all mixed together in different Photoshop blending layers. These textures will work perfect if you’re looking for a heavy grunge effect on your designs or photos.…

    Free Texture Friday – White Plaster
    



    

    These plaster textures were shot on the ceiling of an entrance to the local public pool. They’re quite subtle and will work perfect for adding just a little big of texture to your work without overdoing it. Enjoy!

    Free Texture Friday – Rust 3
    



    

    These rust textures were taken from the sides of a decades old silo and a ’39 Ford that I found rusting in a field around here. I could have spent a long time photographing both of them. I’m really happy with the outcome and I hope you can find some good uses for the textures…

    Free Texture Friday – Stone 3
    



    

    Today I have a great set of stone textures for you. These were taken from the side of an abandoned century old schoolhouse out in the middle of nowhere. A lot of the stone on the side of the building bear the inscription of children from ages ago, they’re more than likely all old men…
