I am surprised at how very clear the explanations are given in each video. I could easily follow the lessons in this class. This class is a good start to get yourself used to PhotoShop features and functions on each tool before started drawing digitally using it.

Simply WOW! I love this teacher, he gives very accurate explanations, I learned more about Photoshop than searching on YouTube. I'll keep on learning more Lectures from him.

Great course. This course covers the basics of digital painting very well. A good introduction to the other course: Concept Art Essentials of this instructor. The only thing I had problem with was checking the discord channel.

In three simple words...SHORT AND SWEET! It is a wonderful introduction course! I had never used Photoshop before, and this helped me with the basics. If you are looking for something straightforward this is for you!!

This really is for people that are starting to use photoshop for the first time and are overwhelmed with information. This lesson should calm them down and let them take the first steps into digital art.

Yay! It has me up and running. The only thing I would add is if anybody was struggling to change their background color it's because you're on a layer and not background. Go to Layer > New > Background from layer.

Excellent, useful, and concise - Not to mention, FREE. He's the first enjoyable art instructor I've had on this platform, EVER. Love it all, everything I've seen from him. Five stars in my book, I'd give him ten if I could.

This course was pretty basic and covered things I already know about Photoshop... however, in the case of making quick, spontaneous thumbnail sketches, it showed me how to do something I would never have thought of. This technique is also great for breaking out of creative block, and has me intrigued about what is taught in the paid for courses. Also, given that this course was very short and quick, it is not disappointing that it didn't show a lot of new techniques.

Very Nicely explain ! my expectation is more from this course but overall the basic concepts are clear.
By Rudra Prasad Dash on 8/27/2019
basically what i learn from this course is the basic fundamental insight about the photoshop.....Its nice to learn those kind stuffs first before jumping into advanced stuffs....not the advanced stuff to be precise...just the basics...also Teacher has a very calm and compose voice which i think is very good
