This is just one of the many digital image manipulation tricks that Krita has up its sleeve! Krita takes all these layers in its layer stack, including the special effects and combines or composites together a final image.

You can edit individual layers, you can even add special effects to them, like Layer styles, blending modes, transparency, filters and transforms.

Layers can give better control over your artwork for example you can re-color an entire artwork just by working on the separate color layer and thereby not destroying the line art which will reside above this color layer. Layers are part of the document which may or may not be transparent, they may be smaller or bigger than the document itself, they can arrange one above other, named and grouped. In Krita instead of papers we use Layers. If you want to replace an element in the artwork, you replace that piece of paper instead of drawing the entire thing. Think of an artwork or collage made with various stacks of papers with some papers cut such that they show the paper beneath them while some hide what’s beneath them. So, join now! and start creating masterpieces with Krita! See you on the other side.Krita supports layers which help to better control parts and elements of your painting. This is very important in a fast-paced production such as in the game industry for example. Finally, I will teach you a very versatile non-destructive workflow that will allows you to create many different variations of artworks from a single artwork fast. We will then cover basic shading concepts and shading methods while doing a skull illustration project from start to finish. After that, we will cover the basic features of Krita. But we will start from zero, and that is the general computer graphic concepts. We will cover a lot of things in this course. To really gain the maximum benefits of using Krita and to gain benefits from this course, you will need a drawing tablet. Because in this course I will mention a lot about Photoshop’s comparable features when explaining the features inside Krita. Or, if you used Photoshop before and you want to move to Krita then this course is for you also. It is designed for complete beginners, so no prior experience needed at all. If you never use Krita before and you want to master it fast. That is why if you want to create drawing or illustration, Krita will me make you feel right at home. Krita was built from the ground up as a digital painting software first in mind.


But unlike Photoshop, Krita is an open source project, so anyone can use Krita without having to pay anything for the software license. Krita is a graphic application comparable to Photoshop, Gimp, CorelPainter, etc.
