### Tuts+ Course: Simple Coloring and Shading a Line Art in Adobe Photoshop
#### Instructor: Monika Zagrobelna

Adobe Photoshop is known as a great tool for artists, and not without reason. However, it doesn't work as magically as some people think. It won't color and shade your picture on its own—you need to tell it what do to. And you can't do it if you don't know it yourself! In this short course I'll teach you all the basics of coloring and shading, so that you can enter the world of digital painting. If you don't have a graphics tablet, I'll also mention techniques that can make the whole work easier for you. We'll start with some theory, and then we'll use it to color and shade a dragon in flight. If you want, you can use your own line art!
