The most important feature of Photoshop is the use of Layers. Layers provide the user with the maximum flexibility to edit and enhance their photographs.

This workshop is designed to provide a thorough understanding of how to create and use Layers in editing an image. The workshop covers:

1. What are Layers.
2. Explanation of Layer types
3. How to build Layer Stacks
4. Using Layer masks
5. Adjustment layers
6. Layer Blend modes

Unlike many other on-line workshops, our interactive workshops are designed to emulate a classroom environment, the students can work along with the instructor, ask questions and have the instructor see and assist them.

The class will be held using the Zoom meeting system with each student able to interact with the instructor and the rest of the class. The class will be limited to 8 people to ensure that all questions are answered.

Prior to the start of the workshop each student receives a Workbook, a set of images used in the class and instructions on how access the online class.‍
