In this seminar we’ll show you a more “illustrative” use of Photoshop to design a graphic. We’ll combine existing photos with digital art created from scratch in Photoshop. A variety of tools and techniques will create illustrative effects. Even though we’ll be showing you how to create one specific image, these techniques are universal and can be used in many situations.

Here are some of the topics we'll be talking while creating the illustration:

• masking
  
• fill layers
  
• how to make patterns
  
• filling with pattern layers
  
• using blend modes for special effects
  
• gradients

We’ll hand out step by step instructions for completing the exercise to everyone who attends.

This seminar is designed for people with a solid working-knowledge of Photoshop.
It is NOT for beginners.
