Warping images

You can distort image areas by using the warp brushes on image pixels

to produce a warping effect. You can twirl areas of images, contract or

expand parts of images, and create many interesting effects. The effect

of the Warp Brush is often time-dependent, which means that the

longer you hold the brush over an area, the more the brush produces

The Warp Brush tool can be used to create caricatures.

You can also warp images by using a grid. When you use the Mesh

Warp tool, a grid or mesh is placed on the image. The grid intersections

have mesh points, or nodes, that you drag to create deformations.

For more information about warping by using a grid, see “To warp

image areas by using a grid” on page 527.
