    Nadia, you introduced an idea to me that spread like wildfire in my mind several months ago. The idea that you don't have to go to art school to be good or even great at creating beautiful art! I almost couldn't believe my eyes at how you change mundane strokes of a brush into something that looks so lifelike I touch my monitor just to make sure sometimes :P Seriously, thank you so much. You inspire the hell out of me, please keep being you girl :) (p.s. I love your voice, it's so calming)

      Jack Norvell wow, Jack, thank you so much for telling me all of this ☺️😊 It made my entire day!!! In my country we don’t have art schools per say, so it was never an option for me. I always had to rely on books, online materials and my own discipline to move forward. And today I work fulltime with my art - having an education that doesn’t even relate to my craft haha. So I was very happy to read your comment - it means thr world to be to know I can do a difference with my work. Thank you so much 🙏❤️

    I can't believe how easy this actually is! An hour ago I was almost crying at how weird this whole PS Clipping Mask system works. I do a digital art course at the moment and the teacher uses the normal photoshop solid color, hue and saturation and also curve Clipping Masks, and it wouldn't work for me. She concealed the clipping masks, so it was filled with black color, then could add / do the things she wanted to, which wouldn't work for me. Only when it was white or inverted. I honestly did almost lose my mind. BUT THEN I FOUND YOUR VIDEO AND NOW EVERYTHING WORKS - WAYYYY EASIER. YOU are my hero, thank you from the bottom of my heart 💖💖💖

    Finally I could apply my layering method in CSP into photoshop. In CSP you could just simply clip the layer group to layer base below, while in photoshop you could create selection from base layer first and then add the layer mask to your layer group. This is Gold! THANK YOU SO MUCH! I wanna cry :(

    i love this tutorial. artists are doing in when they stream of make vids, but none of them are showing how they do it and what process they go through step by step like this does, they just tell you they're "masking" but dont tell you how to do it. it took so long to find this vid for me which is exactly that i needed to learn and not just figure it out my self when artists tell you what tool theyre using.

    I am so amazed at how easy you make it look to work in photoshop! I remember when Adobe introduced so many abilities to layers! I thought the addition of layers could not be topped, good thing I was wrong! You are so generous and kind to show your expertise. I often wish RUclips had been around when I was learning photoshop! I remember paying an “expert” to come to the studio where several of us worked to be trained. I was so disappointed when I had to show her how to use the lasso tool with the option key for working with my selection! She was no expert in my mind, NOT like YOU ARE! Keep going just as you are, really enjoying watching your videos. Take care and be safe!

      This is a great technique, but alternatively, if you are prone to not closing off all your lines (like I do, especially in hair), the wand is useless at this point. So laso is great for open lineart :)

Now that I actually need to use layers in a more practical manner, I was completely lost, so it's helped a bunch. Thanks.

    Thanks for this, I just finished a lineart for a piece and was exploring new ways to shade/color. I looked up layer masks 100% randomly and turns out it has to do with coloring shading so that was convenient lol. I hope this works with vector layers as I may want to mess around with line width after the fact, I like this method best instead of creating a bunch of selection or reference layers

    I'm sure this is in some way rewarding or at least nice to hear so I thought I would say thank you for this two-part series. I'm currently diving into digital art and this was very helpful. I have been wondering what to do with those masks but it will surely take a long time to get familiar with all the things layers and their settings are capable of. Still I'm glad to try this medium - most art supplies have always been too expensive for me so it's very pleasant to finaly learn how to color a sketch and I don't have to feel like I will ruin a piece or waste money by just experimenting. I know I have a long way ahead (the next step will probably be buying a PC and a tablet so I have a larger area to work with, drawing on my phone in my hand compared to paper on a desk might be easier on my back but I get the feeling that the missing shortcuts and small display space slow down everything significantly) - but now I think I'm at least a bit closer to understanding the capabilities of the tool I've been given.
