Hi I am quite new to Affinity, and currently have Publisher and Designer, and am considering getting Photo to.

Do you know if it is possible to create an image effect like the attached using my existing software, or in Photo? And how I would go about it?

Thanks for any tips!

Photo is the best choice for your project.

A splatter effect does not exist directly in the Affinity programmes. But you can recreate it with the help of masks, filters and appropriate brushes.

Welcome to the forum @MelodyJE

I got this funky effect from Affinity Designers pixel persona, using the splatter brushes and alternating the brush colour from black to white. I duplicated the image and applied a threshold filter to get the stark black/white look, then started painting with a splatter brush.

You can colorise with a gradient map filter.

Better splatter brushes would probably yield better results.
