Photoshop und Photoshop Elements Grundlagen für Künstler

Auch wer „klassisch“ malt, kommt heutzutage an digitaler Bildbearbeitung nicht vorbei. Programme wie Adobe Photoshop erleichtern die Vorbereitung von Motivvorlagen erheblich, ermöglichen die Vorvisualisierung von Entwürfen für den Kunden und sind Grundvoraussetzung für die Weiterverarbeitung von Motiven, um davon z. B. Drucke, Poster oder Portfolios herzustellen.

Unter diesen Aspekten gibt Roger Hassler eine Einführung in das Arbeiten mit Adobe Photoshop und Photoshop Elements. Neben einem Überblick über Softwareversionen und Hilfsmittel wie Maus, Grafiktablett und Pen Display werden einfache Grundbegriffe, Basiswerkzeuge und Kompositionstechniken vorgestellt.

Anhand klassischer Airbrush-Motive wie Tiere, Porträt und Totenschädel zeigt er die Arbeit mit Fotovorlagen und die Gestaltung eigener digitaler Illustrationen, die als Airbrush-Vorlage dienen können. Zur Sprache kommen auch Themen wie Fotovorlagen kaufen, die richtige Auflösung sowie die Druckvorbereitung.
