Add Finishing Touches to your Impasto Painting
With Impasto applied, your painting becomes vibrant and pops right off the canvas! Save your work in the RIFF file format if you decide to work on it more, all the layers will remain intact. To give an extra color boost try "Equalize" which will give the painting some extra color pop! To apply Equalize from the Window menu choose Effects > Tonal Control > Equalize. Experiment with the Auto-Painting palette and choose an Impasto brush to work with, make sure that Draw To Color and Depth is selected and have some fun!
