Have you ever taken a moment to notice a sunbeam streaming through a window, seeing how the light changes the colors of objects in the room and casts shadows? Paying attention to the interplay of light and shadow in real life can give us some great inspiration for making our digital paintings look more life-like. So in this course, digital artist Char Reed will discuss the theory of how light can make or break your digital paintings. You'll then get practical and be shown how to digitally paint lighting on various objects and scenes, all within Adobe Photoshop.
