Photoshop 201

Thursdays, June 1 – July 6, 6 PM PT, ONLINE, $199

Photoshop is Adobe’s photo editing, image creation and graphic design software. The software provides many image editing features for raster (pixel-based) images as well as vector graphics. It uses a layer-based editing system that enables image creation and altering with multiple overlays that support transparency.

We will Use WeTransfer to send you photos prior to the class, so that we will be working on the same photos together as a group. Please make sure you have the current version of Adobe Photoshop installed on your computer/laptop before the class starts.
