Concept: Angled lines is an interesting effect created using Adobe Photoshop where we actually define the pattern using the object with the transparent background and then fill it in the image. The transparent part of the pattern shows the original image and the filled part get filled in the entire image showing a peculiar type of pleasing effect. This can be used with images you want to decorate with a special type of effects. Try to work with different types of patterns.
