Course Review: Introduction to Photoshop for Illustrators

Introduction to Photoshop for Illustrators is one of many Domestika Basics courses. Led by illustrator Gemma Gould, the course which has received 100% positive customer reviews, guides you through how to use Adobe Photoshop to create professional-quality illustrations. Gemma uses her decade of experience illustrating with Photoshop to teach you a variety of styles, techniques, and tools which can elevate your digital illustrations through practical screencast videos you can follow in real-time.

The course begins with an introduction to the Photoshop interface. Gemma guides you through the most important Photoshop tools as well as her advice on composition for more dynamic artwork. She then experiments with drawing and brush settings, before exploring how to choose a color palette for your illustration and how to edit and correct color using the software.

Next, you’ll dive into Photoshop’s legendary painting tools and brushes. Discover how to use them to create texture and give your illustrations a more traditional feel. Then compose an image of your own, experimenting with different brush techniques. Each course includes practical tasks at the end of every unit that are a great way to put the skills you learn into practice.

Finishing touches are what set any good illustrator apart and this Domestika Basics has an entire unit dedicated to them. From lighting to blurring techniques, Gemma walks you through how to add depth and movement to your work for a more professional end result. She also invites you behind the scenes of her personal creative process, sharing the techniques and shortcuts she has used in her ten years as an illustrator.

To wrap things up, Gemma covers how to export your finished work for both digital and print formats and shows how to create a realistic animation of your illustration to share online.
