If you want to learn Photoshop quickly, get this! I promise you, this is the best beginner Photoshop tutorial around! It is exciting and packed full of education.
These are the best way of learning Photoshop I have ever seen. I am completely new to this. Saw the things iPad pro could do, and it was down hill from there. Watching the key note speech on the new I Pad Pro, I got hooked. I have tried over the last year trying to make photos, (some, as old as 60 years and in poor shape) better. Teaching myself. I purchased Photoshop and Lightroom, and again trying to teach myself. I saw one of phlearn’s free videos on youtube, and was amazed what photoshop can do. These are great. I have learned so much, and have just started. Thank you for the great way you instruct photoshopping.
