Painting Away Color Tutorial

Step 1: Open a color RGB image 


Step 2: Click on the brush tool, and up in the options bar, switch the Blend Mode from Normal to color.

Step 3: From the Brushes Palette, choose a soft-edged, medium-sized brush. 

Step 4: Start painting. As you paint, the color will disappear, leaving just a grayscale in its wake.
