Learn exciting and easy ways to combine digital images prepared with Adobe Photoshop™ into large and small scale works of art. A complete reference for artists, designers and crafts people, Out of Photoshop reveals techniques on how to evaluate and prepare images in Photoshop for incorporating or transferring to other art works or surfaces:
  • oil or acrylic paintings;
  • plaster or primed canvas,
  • metal, ceramics, plastics, or stone;
  • or leather, silk, cloth and cotton canvas.

    The book is being revised to compare different brands and types of transfer papers and mediums!
  • Easy to remember techniques use inexpensive supplies from the art and hardware store. Traditional artist oil or acrylic paint or dry pigments can be combined with any image or text for unique effects that are archival. Most image techniques can be completed using Adobe Photo Elements if you are not yet up to speed with more complex Adobe Photoshop.
