Photoshop is the archetypal digital art and graphic design program and remains one of the best photo editing programs-- and now you can use a free version, Photopea.com!

My goal is to create a fun, creative learning environment where students can comfortably talk shop about Photoshop, bring their imagination to life, and share their digital art with one another.


PRE-REQUISITE: 
Students should know the basics of Photoshop before registering for this class. Please check with your student to make sure they know how to:
* use Photoshop selection tools, cut, paste, & layers
* use basic Photoshop tools: zoom, brushes, etc.
* use Zoom to share their screen, give permission for the teacher to control the screen remotely, mute/unmute.
* search for, download and upload files, post to Outschool's class log-in page/ classroom.

*** If your learner is not comfortable with the above or is new to Photoshop, register for...

Class structure:
Students will be provided a set of photos to edit when they enroll in the classroom forum as necessary for the project, but students are encouraged to search for and download their own photos from wikipedia and similar copyright free sources. Students must have already downloaded the photos and know which folder they were downloaded to, before class begins. 

Each class will begin with a review, followed by a teacher demonstration of how to use some new Photoshop tools. Students will complete a new creative project, independently in each class.

Weekly private lessons similar to this same class format or tutoring classes in specific digital art apps are available upon request. Please message me for details.
