A place I once worked at had me tweaking the colour of these scanned ceramic tiles so I could output a vast quantity on a large format digital printer - they were going for wallpaper looking like expensive tile I believe. So while I was waiting for the customer to approve a print I had the file open in photoshop and for the first time doodled using that program. I liked the look so I printed some out, tucked them in econo frames, and gave them to family members one Christmas.
I eventually handed that particular job off because I couldn't stand working in the new room they set up - something about a laminator machine and rubber volatiles boiling out of the heated rollers . . . Years later I hear of this thing called giclee prints and how people were paying a mint for them. Who knew?
Anyway - my Dinotile
