You'll also discover how to remove backgrounds, merge and/or add objects, and adjust colors to create impressive images. Later, you'll explore layers and compositing techniques, and get hands on with retouching images like a pro. The book will demonstrate how to create collages and use brushes, color wheels, and swatches for drawing and painting. You'll also learn how to apply impressive text to images to create posters, flyers, and logos. By the end of this book, you'll have learned how to retouch, paint, enhance, and manipulate images; how to use templates provided by Photopea; and finally, how to apply your skills to projects.
