fifteen days :: i will get over my fear of photoshop

15

ok, i love adobe illustrator. ♥ love. ♥ i first starting using it in november and it immediately clicked with me. the way mint ice cream clicks with chocolate chips. and thanks to alma at nicole’s classes, i learned so much in a short period of time.

but adobe photoshop? not so much. i’m terrified of it. it makes no sense. i can’t figure out the simplest thing. i get a little panicky when i open it and try to create something. (sort of like the feeling i’d get if you tried to take away my bowl of mint chip ice cream.) i am more interested in using photoshop to create art and designs than photo-editing at this point in my life.

with a little help from some online friends and tutorials,  i’m going to tackle my fear. for the next 15 days i plan on learning and creating some seriously cool stuff.

are you afraid of photoshop too?    what fear are you going to tackle this week?

  1. Okay, you’re reading my mind. I just upgraded to CS6 and feel like Illustrator and I were separated at birth having also started learning it in November. I guess you’re either an illustrator person or a photoshop person but I wanna be both too! Anxious to see where this leads you as I haven’t even played with it yet. I do have some experience with Elements but the whole shebang of PS is as intimidating as a Ferrari to me.
