Okay, so today was a busy day for non-art related things. Well at least not digitally. I did get some drawing done but I didn’t save during the process and when photoshop crashed while I was playing around with brush settings I had to stop anyway. Oh well, it was just brush testing anyway.
I spent my time today devoted to this reading about shortcuts and some tool usage. I have done this a lot already but this program has so much stuff I’ll probably never know it all.
Here are a few links to some articles I hit today:

http://www.smashingmagazine.com/2009/11/16/brushing-up-on-photoshops-brush-tool/
The last one is not about shortcuts but rather focused on the brush tool alone in photoshop. I found it informative and helped clear up a few questions I had and helped me think of a few brush solutions to textures and brush rotation I hadn’t considered.
Anyway, I won’t be at my station for the next few days as I travel for mother’s day. I’ll post other things I research. I promise I’ll get back to actual image posting soon…
