​Beginning Photoshop for Artists & Creatives:
Part ONE Saturday 3/30/19  1-4pm
Part TWO Saturday 5/4/19  1-4pm
Art of Santa Cruz Capitola Mall



 ​


​Join Open Studios Artist, Alexandra Sanders, for a 3 hour class in the beginning elements of Photoshop for Artists and Creatives. Part ONE will be for individuals with zero to minimal Photoshop experience. Part TWO will be for those who have taken Part ONE or for those who feel they know some of the basics.....still a beginning class.

The DETAILS

LOCATION: Class will be held at the Capitola Mall, in the empty store directly across from Art of Santa Cruz and next to the SPCA and Target's Mall Entrance.  

Class COST is $60.00. Please pay in advance to guarantee your spot, via PayPal, personal check or Credit Card (contact me at Alexi637@sbcglobal.net). Class size is limited so I cannot guarantee your spot without advanced payment. 
​
​You must have your own laptop and Photoshop program installed on your computer. A monthly Photoshop subscription via Adobe is available for $9.99 a month, which I feel is very reasonable and gives you an always up-to-date program. If you have any trouble finding the $9.99/month program (I did, so I will not be surprised), please contact me via email and I will help you. Here is the latest link that appears to work.

ADDITIONALLY: Please bring your charger (and an extension cord if possible).
​
Students should expect an email from me with a few Photoshop files that we will use for exercises. I also encourage each student to give me an idea of the project you have in mind. It is highly recommended that you have a project, something you can continue to work on after the class. I feel this is important in order to retain what you have learned. 

​

Personalized & Interactive

Class size will be limited to 10-12 students and will focus on learning the basic elements of Photoshop. Each student should have a project in mind and ideally this should be mailed to the instructor prior to class. That way the class can truly be tailored to the individual's needs. 

What type of project?

I use Photoshop for all my design needs: from creating greeting cards, to advertising headers, to resizing images for shows, to altering an image (removing elements, enhancing, adding elements), and so much more. Come to class with an idea in mind.
