This lesson we'll have the possibility to learn drawing a girl from the Gothic period, imitate also the lace and use several of the program's filters.
Open in a new window the scanned girl's picture: File – Open (ctrl+o)
We have to decolorize firstly the layer to make the lines more visible: Image – Adjustments – Desaturate (shift+ctrl+u). Then make the layer brighter and look in contrast, using the command: Image – Adjustments – Curves (ctrl+m).
We have to enlarge the working place, selecting previously
the Crop Tool.
Start paining the picture. Open a new layer: Layer – New – Layer and select the Brush Tool to paint the girl with the main colors. For your convenience, each color should be placed on a new layer.
Create one more layer above the layer containing the outlined contours. Paint this layer with any color, but not too bright one, choosing the Paint Bucket Tool. The layer with the scanned contours should be erased.
