In this workshop, participants will be challenged to master the various Healing Tools Photoshop offers. The Healing Tools in Photoshop enable users to remove damaged or distracting portions of an image, and even replace sections of an image that may be missing. Participants will spend time in this workshop learning how each tool behaves and examine situations in which it would be the most appropriate tool to use. Participants will also spend plenty of time practicing with these tools and mastering the techniques required to get the most out of them.
