In this tutorial, we'll create a beautiful abstract rainbow background in Photoshop with simple steps. Let's get started!
Final effect
Create a new file (Ctrl + N) with a size of 1920px X 1200px (RGB color mode) and 72 pixels in Adobe Photoshop. Then select the Paint Bucket tool (G) to fill the background layer with black.

Next, we'll combine these colored line layers into one group (press CTRL to select the line layers, and then hold down the left mouse button to drag the selected layer to the option to create a new group). Press CTRL + E to merge the layer groups down, and next we need to bend the layers. Press CTRL + T to select Free transform, and use the control point to distort the line as shown in the following illustration:

Create a new layer again and select the soft, round brush (opacity 20%) that we used before to deepen it, see figure below:
