Lines are everywhere. You can see lines in the grain of a piece of wood or in the cracks on a sidewalk.
In art, Line is an element of art that is the path of a moving point through space.
Lines are used to:
-
Create boundaries between shapes
-
Create boundaries between colors, textures or values
-
Lead the eye from one space to another
-
Create textures
-
Suggest emotional qualities

Classwork & assignments
Grid drawing is a very old technique of transferring images (from sketches to a full size canvas or fresco, etc...)
Always make sure that the number of squares on the original picture and your working area are exactly the same (even if the size of the squares are bigger on the paper). This is because no matter how many times bigger (or smaller) you make the drawing, the proportions and dimensions can only stay the same if the number of boxes (squares) matches exactly.
Make sure you follow all steps below.

Layers 101- Basic concepts
Photoshop layers are like sheets of stacked acetate.
You can see through transparent areas of a layer to the layers below.
You move a layer to position the content on the layer, like sliding a sheet of acetate in a stack.

Example:

Try this:
Open Layers Palette:
Window > Layers (or F7)

Heading 2

A new layer is always placed above currently selected layer.
There are few ways to create a New (blank) layer:
-
Layer > New > Layer
-
Layers palette: "Create New Layer" button
-
Shift + Ctrl + N
Layer Visibility


A selected layer is the one that is highlighted in the layers palette.
Once you add something to a layer - it shows in a thumbnail of the Layers palette.
Everything you do to an image happens only on the selected layer - painting, drawing, adjustments, transformations, etc.


You can hide a layer by clicking on an eye icon.
Click on the "eye" again to view the layer.

Delete Layers
You can permanently delete a layer by:
-
Selecting it
-
Dragging it to the "trash can" icon at the bottom of the palette.
-
You can also delete a layer by just clicking on the "trash can" icon (without dragging), but you will need to confirm the deletion

Type (text) Layer

Type layer is created automatically when you start using the Type tool.
Type layer has a "T" symbol in the thumbnail area.
With Type layer selected you can move the text around, apply special effects, change font, size, color, etc.
The name of your Type layer reflects the text that you typed.
If you change the text - the name will automatically adjust to the change.

Dragging (adding) layers
To combine multiple images (files) in one project:

-
Determine which file is going to be your "main" image.
-
Have all files open in PS
-
Grab the secondary file by the tab at the top of the image window and drag it off the tab group bar
-
Select Move tool
-
Click and drag the secondary image into your main image window.
A new layer will be automatically created with a default name (Layer 1, Layer 2, etc.)
