Part V: Painting, Paths, Shapes, and Text 506 l Saturation: This applies the blend by creating the resulting pixel using the luminance and hue of the base pixel but the saturation of the paint brush pixel. This reduces the blend to affect only the saturation of the base pixels. l Color: This applies the blend by creating the resulting pixel using the luminance of the base pixel but the hue and saturation of the paint brush pixel. This limits the blend so it doesn’t affect the brightness of the base pixels. l Luminosity: This applies the blend by creating the resulting pixel using the hue and satu- ration of the base pixel but the luminance of the paint brush pixel. This allows you to apply it so it affects only the brightness of the base pixels. Painting with painting tools Painting tools, shown in Figure 16.1, paint by applying new color to the pixels in a specific region under the tool. This is a pretty basic concept that has been around for decades. Photoshop enhances the paint technique by allowing you to select specific brush styles, sizes, and settings that control how pixels are painted in almost unlimited ways. FIGURE 16.1 The Painting tools allow you to apply color to images using a variety of brush and pencil strokes.

Brush tool strokes have a soft edge that is created by anti-aliasing the edges of the stroke so the edge blends slightly with the surrounding document. Pencil tool strokes have a crisp, hard edge that is not blended with the surrounding document. Figure 16.2 shows an example of the Brush and Pencil tool strokes applied with the same brush style. FIGURE 16.2 The Brush applies the stroke with soft edges, and the Pencil tool applies the stroke with hard edges. Brush tool stroke Pencil tool stroke Even though the concept is simple, the Brush and Pencil tools provide an incredible range of results. Using the Brush and Pencil tools, you can configure the following settings in the tool menus that control how the Brush and Pencil strokes are applied to the image: l Presets: As with all presets in Photoshop, the Presets option allows you to quickly save the tools settings and then load and select them later. l Brush Preset Picker: The Brush Preset Picker drop-down box allows you to select the style of brush to use for the tool. You also can set the size and hardness of the brush. The size of the brush determines the area of pixels that are affected by the brush stroke, and the hardness of the brush determines the intensity of the stroke. When painting, harder brushes mean more color is added; when editing, harder brushes mean that a more dramatic effect is applied. Note The settings that you apply using the Brush panel add to or override the settings you set in the Brush Preset Picker menu. You likely want to use a combination between selecting the brush using the Brush Preset Picker option, the Brush panel, and the Brush Presets panel. n Using the Brush Preset Picker side menu, you can manage the set of brushes listed. You can rename and remove brushes, load different sets of brushes, and even manage the appearance of the lists, as shown in Figure 16.3. 24_584743-ch16.indd 50724_584743-ch16.indd 507 5/3/10 10:37 AM5/3/10 10:37 AM Part V: Painting, Paths, Shapes, and Text 508 FIGURE 16.3 The Brush Preset Picker menu options allow you to quickly select a brush and set the size and hardness. You also can manage the list of brush styles that are displayed. l Brush panel: Selecting the Toggle the Brush Panel option displays the Brush panel that allows a variety of options to control every aspect of the brush behavior. The Brush panel needs much explanation and is covered later in this chapter. l Mode: This specifies the blending mode used to apply the brush stroke to the pixels below. The blending mode can have a major impact on how the brush strokes look. Instead of just applying the brush stroke to the pixels below, Photoshop blends the pixel data in the brush stroke with the pixel data in the selected layer, based on the blend mode algorithm. Blend modes are covered in more detail later in this chapter. l Opacity: This allows you to specify the opacity of the painting tool. A larger amount of opacity means the underlying pixels are affected more by the painting stroke. A value of 100% means that all pixels are affected; 0% means that none of the pixels are affected. l Tablet Pressure Controls Opacity: When this option is set, the pressure on the sty- lus tip defines the percentage of opacity involved when painting. This is a great option to fine-tune your strokes using a more realistic effect, if you have a stylus pen. 24_584743-ch16.indd 50824_584743-ch16.indd 508 5/3/10 10:37 AM5/3/10 10:37 AM Chapter 16: Painting and Brushes 509 l Flow: The Flow option controls the rate that the tool effect is applied to the pixels below. A value of 100% means that the pixels are affected immediately. Adjusting the flow lower applies the effect more slowly, allowing you to move the brush before the full effect of the tool is applied to the underlying pixels. Using this option, you can give your stroke effect a more realistic look just as if you were painting at different speeds with a real brush. l Airbrush: When this option is selected, the stroke is applied in gradual tones to the image. This option typically works better when used in conjunction with a reduced flow setting. l Auto Erase: This allows you to use the Pencil tool to paint over areas containing the foreground color using the selected background color. When this option is selected and the cursor is over the foreground color when you begin dragging, the area is painted with the background color. When this option is selected and the cursor is not over the foreground color when you begin dragging, the area is painted with the fore- ground color. l Tablet Pressure Controls Size: When this option is selected, the stylus pressure overrides the brush or pencil size when painting. l Color Replacement Tool: The Color Replacement tool works similar to the Brush tool except that it applies the paint, specified by the foreground color in the Toolbox, only to a specified color. This is a great way to replace one color in the image with another without affecting the surrounding pixels. A sample color is selected, and as the Color Replacement tool is applied, Photoshop analyzes the pixels below the tool, determines which pixels match the sample color, and paints only those pixels. Only the pixels that match the sam- pled color are replaced, as shown in Figure 16.4. Using the Color Replacement tool, you can configure the following settings in the Tool menu, shown in Figure 16.1, that control how the Color Replacement strokes are applied to the image: l Continuous Sampling: When this option is selected, the Color Replacement tool con- tinuously samples the pixel directly beneath it to determine what color of pixels to paint. When this option is set, it behaves close to the Brush tool, depending on the other settings. l Once Sampling: When this option is selected, the color to replace is determined by the pixel directly below the tool when you first click and begin to drag the mouse. This option is great for quickly selecting the color to replace directly from the image. l Background Sampling: When this option is selected, the color to paint is determined by the background color in the Toolbox. l Limits: This allows you to set the limit of erasing to Discontiguous, Contiguous, or Find Edges. Discontiguous replaces the pixels wherever they occur. Contiguous replaces only the pixels that are immediately adjacent to the first selected pixel. Find Edges replaces pixels while trying to keep the edges in the image distinct. 24_584743-ch16.indd 50924_584743-ch16.indd 509 5/3/10 10:37 AM5/3/10 10:37 AM Part V: Painting, Paths, Shapes, and Text 510 l Tolerance: This specifies the tolerance to use when determining whether a pixel matches the sample color and should be replaced. l Anti-alias: When this option is selected, Photoshop uses anti-aliasing to soften the edges around the pixels being replaced. l Mixer Brush tool: The Mixer Brush tool is a bit different from the Painting tools and is covered in a later section in this chapter. Figure 16.4 shows an example of using the Color Replacement tool to paint a different color onto a flower. Notice that only the petals of the flower are affected. We used the Sampling options to sam- ple a petal, so only the pixels that are similar to the color of the petals are altered, leaving the oth- ers alone. FIGURE 16.4 The Color Replacement tool allows you to use brush strokes to paint over a specific color while leaving the other colors alone. Painting with editing tools Editing tools paint by using different algorithms to manipulate the pixels in a specific region under the tool instead of the laying down a new color. These tools allow you to control the shape and the size of the area of pixels affected by the tool. Pixels are manipulated by dragging the mouse or using a stylus pen. The editing tools allow you to fix or enhance problems spots in images. For example, you can use the Spot Healing Brush tool to remove blemishes or the Sharpen tool to enhance the sharpness of a specific area of a photo. 24_584743-ch16.indd 51024_584743-ch16.indd 510 5/3/10 10:37 AM5/3/10 10:37 AM Chapter 16: Painting and Brushes 511 The following sections discuss the editing tools that you use to paint edits on photos in Photoshop. Healing tools The Healing tools shown in Figure 16.5 allow you to quickly fix problem areas of photos, such as scratches, red-eye, or even the removal of unwanted objects. These tools are covered in detail in Chapter 15, so we don’t cover them here. Cross-Ref For a more detailed explanation of how to use the Healing tools to edit photos, see Chapter 15. n FIGURE 16.5 The Healing tools allow you to use brush strokes to quickly fix and remove problems areas in photographs. Clone Stamp and Pattern Stamp tool The Clone Stamp tool shown in Figure 16.6 allows you to quickly fix problem areas of photos, such as scratches and unwanted objects, by using other areas of the photo as a source to replace pixels using a Stamp brush. This tool is covered in detail in Chapter 15, so we don’t cover it here. Cross-Ref For a more detailed explanation of how to use the Clone Stamp tool to edit photos, see the section on cloning in Chapter 15. n The Pattern Stamp tool works similar to the brush tool except that it paints a pattern instead of a color. The options for the Pattern Stamp tool include the following: l Pattern Picker: Allows you to select a pattern to paint from the drop-down menu. l Aligned: When this option is enabled, the pattern in each new brush stroke is aligned with the previous brushstroke. This allows you to keep the pattern aligned as you paint multiple strokes. l Impressionist: Softens the pattern to give it an artistic effect rather than a crisp pattern. 24_584743-ch16.indd 51124_584743-ch16.indd 511 5/3/10 10:37 AM5/3/10 10:37 AM Part V: Painting, Paths, Shapes, and Text 512 FIGURE 16.6 The Clone Stamp tool allows you to use a stamp effect to quickly fix and remove problems areas in photographs. Pattern Picker History tools The History tools shown in Figure 16.7 allow you to use brush effects to paint previous edit states of the document onto the current state. This allows you to use a painting effect to reveal effects from previous edit states. This tool is covered in more detail in Chapter 5, so we don’t cover it here. Cross-Ref For a more detailed explanation of how to use the History tools to revive effects from previous states, see Chapter 5. n FIGURE 16.7 The History tools allow you to use a paint brush to paint data from a previous edit state of the document onto the current state, thus restoring effects to specific areas of the image. Eraser tools The Eraser tools, shown in Figure 16.8, are designed to do just that—erase pixels from the image. However, the Eraser tools provide several settings that provide lots of flexibility when removing pixels. Eraser tools apply to the selected layer in the Layers panel, so you can restrict the erasing to a specific layer. Tip You can select the Eraser tool using the E hotkey, and you can toggle through the Eraser tools by using the Shift+E hotkey sequence on the keyboard. n 24_584743-ch16.indd 51224_584743-ch16.indd 512 5/3/10 10:37 AM5/3/10 10:37 AM . paint by applying new color to the pixels in a specific region under the tool.
