CHAPTER

Exploring Realism and Reference Photos

In this chapter, they talk about using AI and reference photos for realism, specifically in the context of sketching. They discuss a place where they can find reference photos online and how they use them to modify their compositions. They also mention using a new Photoshop beta that allows them to create regenerative scenes around their images. They share their experience with trying to add more elements to a reference photo and how sometimes the results can be unexpected. They also touch on the question of why they bother to draw realistic art when photographs already exist, and they explain that it's about the journey and the experience rather than the end result.
