Artist Spotlight: Bert Monroy

 

Now here is a man that has simply got it down. The man does not need a camera. He renders everything from scratch and the results are simply stunning. Bert has been using Photoshop pretty much since its inception and inclusion into the digital world and he has managed to leave even some of the best illustrators stupefied, and he is still at it. Bert currently is traveling the country bringing his expertise to the masses through his Creativity Tour, sponsored by the NAPP. You can check out Bert’s work here. You can also check out his weekly podcast in which he posts a new technique every week. Realy cool stuff.

Create A Composite Layer

If you have a multilayer composition and you
want to apply an effect to all the layers at once, don’t flatten the layers–use a composite layer instead. Hide the layers you want excluded, and press Shift-Command-Option-E (PC: Shift-Ctrl-Alt-E). A new layer will be created at the top containing a merged copy of all the visible layers.

Another option is to create a new layer at the top of the stack and make it active. Command-click (PC: Ctrl-click) each layer you want to include to make those layers active, as well. Press Option-Command-E (PC: Alt-Ctrl-E).
