When it comes to digital painting in Photoshop, illustrators, in general, are used to using the brush tool. In this class, we will use only the lasso tool to draw and paint. Although it is not the usual tool to draw or paint in Photoshop, it can be a powerful tool if it is used correctly.
Using some photo references, we'll draw and painting portraits using just the lasso tool for it.
We will also cover some principles of light applied to geometric objects before starting painting the human figures.
At the end of each painting, we will see how to apply textures so as to make the appearance looks more natural.
List of tools to be used in this class:
- A PC or Mac computer;
- A Wacom Tablet (Intuos, Cintiq, etc);
- Adobe Photoshop;
- Internet connection for references;
- Creativity!
