Layers in Photoshop Sketch

- [Instructor] I know it's difficult to believe looking at me but I was actually around when layers were introduced into Photoshop version three. There you go. I know. It's amazing. I moisturize. That's all I can say. I know how much layers revolutionized Photoshop, turned it into a whole different creature, and Photoshop Sketch is enjoying that revolution since the addition of layers in 2016.

Probably the most requested feature in the entire product. I know that from my own personal experience that was the number one thing I was asked when I was demonstrating this or doing it at shows, "Does it support layers?" Now, of course, it does. So, what do layers bring to the party? Well, they mean that we can work more freely and more quickly because we don't have to calculate what we doing based on whether or not we need to erase things later on.

It means that you can just brush. You don't have to back off, similar to masking and selection. Of course, it doesn't have those things but you can use the eraser to combat those and plenty of other things. So, we have a whole chapter devoted to layers. They are that important. Let's get started and have a look what we've got.
