PRO TIP: Please be aware that the ‘How Do You Wrap an Image Around a Shape in Photoshop?’ tutorial may not produce the desired results if you are not using the correct tools and/or Photoshop version.

Photoshop is a widely used program for crafting digital images. Many people are familiar with the basics of Photoshop, but don’t know how to do more advanced tasks such as wrapping an image around a shape. Here’s a quick guide on how to do just that:

First, open the image you want to use in Photoshop. Then, create a new layer by clicking on the “Create a new layer” icon at the bottom of the Layers panel. Next, use the Elliptical Marquee Tool to draw an elliptical selection around the area where you want the image to be wrapped.

To do this, click and hold down the left mouse button inside the document window, and then drag outwards to create an elliptical selection. Once you’re happy with the selection, go to Edit > Fill and choose “Content-Aware” from the drop-down menu. This will cause Photoshop to fill the selection with pixels from the image itself.

Now that the area is filled, go to Edit > Transform > Warp. This will bring up a grid over top of the image. To wrap the image around the shape, simply click and drag on the corners of the grid. As you do this, you’ll see the image start to wrap around the shape.

When you’re happy with how it looks, hit Enter/Return to apply the changes. And that’s it! You’ve now successfully wrapped an image around a shape in Photoshop!
