All New! All New! Photoshop ® for Artists




Finally, that long-awaited workshop that takes the
mystery out of the premier image editing tool:
Photoshop ®. This is the de-facto piece of software
that is essential to managing and manipulating
images, and we will unlock its secrets for you.

Most of Photoshop ® is useless for the artist who
wants to improve and print photographic reference,
because there are very few controls and filters in
Photoshop® that actually make a photograph look
better. In this course, you will learn the most useful
tools, and learn how to by-pass useless filters and
tools that will actually degrade the image.

This program builds a solid understanding of the
tools and concepts necessary to realize your visual
goals, and lays out the path to absolute control
over your digital ambitions.
