Terry’s Photoshop Show #2 – Non-Destructive Editing, Selections and Masks


Photoshop – Making and Using Masks – part II


This week, first we’ll cover some basics of non-destructive editing, and then we will focus on doing some masks (ways of removing parts of an image), and if I find some images I can use with a curly haired person in them, I’m showing a trick using a brush set to Overlay Blending Mode that does this like nothing else I’ve ever tried.

Here are the two other tutorials I mention that show how to mask complex objects like hair. The first uses a similar technique to what I did with the brush tool in overlay mode:
