Select your Brush Tool from the Tools palette, choose the color you want to paint with, and begin painting on the layer to add your color. Simply add a new blank layer above your image and set the blend mode of the layer to Color. This allows you to add color to the image without affecting the lightness values. One of the most popular uses for the Color blend mode is to colorize black and white images. As we'll see on the next page, Color is actually the exact opposite of our fifth and final essential blend mode, Luminosity, which ignores all color in the layer and blends only the lightness values.ĭownload this tutorial as a print-ready PDF! Real World Example of the Color Blend Mode
The Color blend mode is perfect for when you want to add or change the colors in an image without changing the brightness values. The luminosity (lightness) values of the layer are completely ignored. Figma is a web-based program used for web and user interface design. Figma There are 16 options in Figma for blending layers to achieve varying effects. When you change a layer's blend mode to Color, only the color (that is, all of the hues and their saturation values) from the layer is blended in with the layer or layers below it. Corel: Corel offers several programs that use blending modes including Paintshop Pro, Pinnacle Studio, and Corel Draw. The Color blend mode is actually a combination of the first two modes in the Composite group, Hue and Saturation. This blend mode is equivalent to color, but with the layers swapped. In fact, by no sheer coincidence, it's named the Color blend mode, and if you recall from the first page, it's found in the Composite group of blend modes along with the Hue, Saturation and Luminosity modes. Our fourth essential blend mode in Photoshop has nothing to do with shadows, highlights or image contrast and everything to do with color. The Screen blend mode ignores black areas and makes everything else lighter, while the Overlay blend mode ignores areas that are 50% gray and makes dark areas darker and light areas lighter, improving image contrast. In this tutorial, well focus on Photoshops five most important blend modes, which are Multiply, Screen, Overlay, Color, and Luminosity. The Multiply blend mode ignores white areas and makes everything else darker. Every layer blend mode we've seen so far in our look at the essential blend modes for photo editing in Photoshop has been about darkening images, lightening images, or both.
