Summary

In this chapter, we learned what layers are and explored their benefits in the digital art world; layers give brilliant freedom for experimentation while protecting each element of your artwork, making your piece easy and safe to edit. We learned about the Layer palette and the various options and icons it has. We also learned about the Layer Property palette and the different effects it can have on our layers. Then, we made a file and set it up with three new layers, and we made a layer folder that is ready for us to begin creating. In the next chapter, we will learn about erasers and how we can use them.
