STEP 3:

Paint black on the layer mask to erase it.

Lower the opacity on the soft brush so that the effect is subtle.

Paint white back on if you erase too much.

STEP 5:

Try an Adjustment Layer to make your art have a different color effect.

You can turn them on and off like a regular layer if you don’t like it.

These are called NON-Destructive Edits.

The remainder of the video shows you a cool text effect, how to crop your photo, and how to add a frame.

These are optional steps to enhance your art but not required.
