Artsy Arcs

Post by Ken Crawford »

I see that the "artsy Arcs" are getting really popular and there are several methods to produce these using brushes which work nicely. Even with my Wacom Tablet my hand is not always very steady and I want total control over the result. So I threw together this tutorial that uses my favorite tools - Masks. This method takes me about 10 minutes to explain in detail but I can produce the result in a couple of minutes.
