Selections and Transformations 555
In the following set of owl images, the artist created and saved selections for each area
that she wanted to work with separately — the eyes, the beak, and the outline. To show
the selections clearly in these images, the selections were saved to channels, reloaded,
and displayed as red overlays. For more information, see “To view or hide a channel” on
page 535.
The following images show the step-by-step creation of a precise "face" selection that
excludes the beak and eyes. The purpose of the precise selection of the face is to control
the brushstrokes and constrain effects.
The image
The eye and beak channels (saved selections)
are loaded and added. The combined
selection is saved to the “eyebeak” channel.
