How to add modern gradient effect?

[Fuzzman]

Hey, I'm a pretty inexperienced photoshop user using cc14 and I'm designing the graphics for a new website I'm working on and I was trying to get the kind of gradient(?) effect shown in this website

This is not exact but it's a close approximation.

Open a document and add the BG color.


On a new layer, use the Brush Tool with a large soft brush set to white, make some shapes.


Add a Gaussian Blur to the brushed shapes.


Then set the blend mode to 'overlay'.


On a new layer and still using the Brush Tool, select a Bokeh brush.
Create some Bokeh shapes over the other brushed shapes using white.


Set the blend mode to 'overlay'.


Add a Gaussian Blur, and set the opacity to 30%.


That's about it. Definitely experiment with settings while creating.

Here's a Bokeh brush in case you don't have one.

Good luck.
