Sharpen Your Photoshop Skills with Daily Creative Challenges
Adobe Photoshop is a powerful photo editing software used by millions of people worldwide. It’s also a complex app that can take years to master, but mastery is possible with the right mindset.
That’s why Behance & Adobe has created a series of Creative Challenges to help us learn how to use Photoshop effectively. The lessons dive deep into photo editing features such as perspective-bending, typography, lighting, and much more. These self-directed challenges are a great way to wrap learning in a fun and accessible manner.
You can follow along with the daily challenges or go back and pick from one of the many past challenge time frames. Each task comes with an instructional video and focuses on different tools and effects in Photoshop.
Fear of making common mistakes or focusing too much on subjects can stop anyone from becoming good at Photoshop; instead they should adopt the mindset of an expert instead!
Taking time to properly plan ahead will greatly increase the end result as well as saving users countless headaches in the long run! After all, without proper preparation it's impossible for anyone to become truly proficient at such a complicated application!
You can even go back and follow along with Kladi Vergine as she tackles the first two iterations of the Behance Photoshop Challenge in her video series.
The Adobe YouTube channel is packed with helpful tutorials and live demonstrations that everyone should check out. A personal favourite is the Make It Now with Photoshop playlist which features 1-minute tutorials that really pack a punch.
