Mastering Adobe Photoshop Elements 2023

Color keys

Hello reader,

I am excited for you to get your hands to this book and partner with you on this journey!

I wrote this book to include all the techniques I’d have loved to read and learn when I started off as a Photoshop artist. The book has been thoroughly updated with the latest features and techniques announced in PSE 2023 and I hope you enjoy reading and playing around with the tool as you progress and produce.

To make it easier for you to relate to the increasing complexity of the chapters, I’ve designed a color-key for this book. I’ve assigned a color stripe to every chapter to convey the difficulty level as follows:

Let me start by saying writing a book on Photoshop is not easy. There is so much information when it comes to this program. This author does an incredible job creating an in depth, yet easy to follow book. Very impressive!I use Photoshop regularly and I learned so much by reading this! I will be implementing some of these techniques into my workflow. My organizational skills could use some work for sure!The author doesn’t only teach you Photoshop. They teach you things that can be done externally to create much better images and workflow.This book is perfect for people just starting out and people who have been doing this for years. There is always more to learn! Thanks for the great read!

The book is a very comprehensive edition covering everything one can do editing photographs using Photoshop Elements 2023. Photoshop’s latest release.It’s expensive but the subject covered all the functions in great detail.
