Here’s a quick, fun and interesting way to work with illustration. Mixed with a photo use the Mask Tool when drawing up shapes of silhouettes of houses or cottages, or something else. For this winter picture of a little stream of water, walking my dog, I first adjusted the photo. Then on a new set of objects in the Object Manager Docker, I draw and painted using some of the Mask tools. And for final touches, finished off with the Paint tool. This results in some very imaginative imagery.
