Hour 8. Digital Painting

What You'll Learn in This Hour:

• Foreground and Background Colors

• Selecting Colors

• Blending Modes

Now that you know a little bit about brushes and painting tools, you need to know how to choose some colors with which to paint. Some of the nicer characteristics of digital paint are that it doesn't get under your fingernails, it doesn't smell like turpentine, and you don't have to clean your brushes after you're done painting.

In this hour, you're going to learn about choosing and applying color . There are several ways of choosing colors, and the chapter also discusses blending modes, which affect the way colors (and layers ) interact.
