I've been wanting to create more graphics using clean lines, and I've always been interested in textured backgrounds (although, to date, I haven't used them very often in digital work). So I think I might create a series of digital artworks with textured backgrounds and clean graphics.
It is fairly popular at the moment to have vectorized details, but for now I'd feel more comfortable making paths with a pen tool in Photoshop. I might even do a simple tutorial later today and post it here in my blog.
:edit: I've decided to do two short tutorials. The first will cover creating a background image and the second will be the clean designs and how to integrate them into the background image.
