- [Voiceover] Hi. I'm Kevin Stohlmeyer, an Adobe Certified Instructor and welcome to using Wacom Tablets with Adobe Photoshop. Using a Wacom Tablet when drawing in Adobe Photoshop can expand your artistic skills by utilizing a natural brush to canvas feel. A Wacom Tablet is really an indispensable tool when working inside Adobe Photoshop, giving you control based on your pen pressure and angle of use. First, I'll show you the different components of a Wacom Tablet, including the Grip Pen and how to replace your nibs. Next, we'll get into setting up your system preferences for each part of your Wacom Tablet, including ExpressKeys, the Touch Ring, and Radial Menu.
Then, I'll show you how to customize your settings specifically for Adobe Photoshop, and finally, I'll show you how to use the features inside Adobe Photoshop specifically designed for pen and tablet usage, with the brush and custom settings including natural tip brushes and erodible brushes. There are all sorts of great options available when using your Wacom Tablet and I'm excited to show you how to bring this workflow into Adobe Photoshop. So let's get started.
Q: This course was updated on in April 2016. What changed?
A: We updated one video, "Radial Menu," to reflect changes to the Wacom software.
