In The Photoshop Toolbox: Essential Techniques for Mastering Layer Masks, Brushes, and Blend Modes from Rocky Nook , photographer and bestselling author Glyn Dewis breaks down Photoshop into three main features: layer masks, brushes, and blend modes. Dispelling the myth that Photoshop is difficult to learn and nearly impossible to master, he demonstrates how learning these three key features and tools will allow you to achieve just about anything you want in Photoshop.
