Learn the Magic of Photoshop – Building Dream Worlds and the Art of Conceptual Composites – with Richard Desmarais, veteran photographer and Photoshop expert.

Who Should Take this Course?

This session is designed for people with some base Photoshop skills who want to transform plain photos into magical worlds beyond our reality.

This course is designed for anyone who wants to:

• Improve their post processing skills
• Enjoy their photography beyond the camera
• Create beautiful, computer based imagery from regular photos

Richard will teach the art of conceptual composites.

The Photoshop Seminar will demonstrate the usage of layers, adjustment layers, gradation maps, warp, puppet warp, brushes, and much more.

All pre-selected elements will be provided.
