This is a new series I am starting in this blog. which aim to help you learn Photoshop as easily as possible. Many of you has noticed how I have been focusing more on digital art, mainly because it is what I know most about. With all honesty, I am not an expert in anything other than pencils, and all my future plans regarding art is about digital. It is not like I am going to abandon pencil drawing all together (I will write many useful articles about that in the future).

I have encountered many people who wish they could learn Photoshop. Except that they don’t. It not that there is a lack of articles or books that teach that wonderful program. There are plenty of those actually. To the point you would think the market is saturated with them. But still, for the majority of people. The way to learn Photoshop can be intimidating. As the program is huge and full of features. And many will think they will need to learn tons of things to be able to do anything useful with it, but the truth is. To Learn Photoshop and use it effectively, you won’t have to learn all the features in it. Just the 5% features that is used %95 of time. And to make it easier to learn those. I will cut them for you into tiny peaces. Then get some sugar on them before feeding you the peaces one by one. Wouldn’t Photoshop be really sweet that way? This is what I am going to do in this series of posts. Which I plan to keep on publishing on a regular interval.

Now, speaking about the need to learn a lot to be able to benefit from Photoshop, believe me. By only learning a little bit of it, like some of the tools and all you could do wonders using the program. And I will show you that with hand-ons at the end of each post.

• All Photoshop tutorials will be easy to follow, and to the point.
• At the end of this series, you will be able to use the program to do many things you couldn’t do before, and you can still learn more by purchasing the book Learn Photoshop CC With Pictures, which contains even more materials
• You will be able to expand to what you learned here in case you had the time for it.
• These skills will benefit you in tons of ways in the future. And more than you could imagine. I have been using Photoshop for years, I have used it for creating banner, manipulating & fixing Photos. And even drawing Anime artworks and creating all the pictures needed for this site (The logo of this site is made by Photoshop by the way ;D).

A little advice before you start to learn Photoshop

Photoshop is a great and big program. But don’t let the amount of features in it fool you. The best way to use software like it is to take the simplest approach in doing things. Many people fall into the habit of trying to create complicated designs and use tons of tool trying to do that. And they end up creating things they are not proud of. And who said all these sophisticated arts you saw online were done that way? Many of them were made by combining many of the simplest techniques to create a simple & lovely design. Just remember, when you want to make your coffee sweeter, you simply add sugar to it. You don’t go to the lab to invent something that makes it sweet :)
