Hello and Welcome to Graphic Addicts! Your one-stop shop for all things Photoshop related!

If you are viewing this it's likely that you're interested in learning about Photoshop and all the creative freedom that comes with it.

As a college undergraduate student, I quickly realized how vital design is within our lives. There are advertisements and branding all around us. I became fascinated with the idea that I could to create stunning images that could be viewed by a large range of people.

Through a lot of hard work and self-study, I have come to understand the inner workings of photoshop and how to manipulate images to create a show-stopping product.

It has become my mission to pass on the knowledge I have obtained throughout the years onto you. Your product may not exactly turn out like mine - and that's okay! I urge you to take this information with a grain of salt and use it as a resource to better your skills or gain new ones!



How to Navigate this blog

As you may have already noticed this blog is broken up into three main sections.

Articles
This tab is where you will find helpful information that is design related. It will offer a broad range of materials for you to explore that will keep you on the front lines of all things design but all give you some ideas to get the ball rolling when thinking about what exactly you want to design. This tab will also contain leisure content. Check out my most current post about Podcast!

This tab will show all things tutorials! Upon entering college I quickly realized that many tutorials often require a subscription. The tutorials I provide are completely free and will provide step by step instructions to help you improve your skills within photoshop.
