Photoshop Surface Pattern

Using Photoshop, i created several different surface patterns from images of guitars, drums etc. 

The first step in creating them was to find the images and open them up in photoshop. After this, i needed to select the object and turn it into a paint brush. To do this i used the quick select tool to select the background then I in versed the selection and then used define brush preset tool to turn it into a brush.

Using the paint brush menu, i adjusted the scrollers which manipulated the size and orientation of the brush strokes.
