Recreating a famous piece of art.

The goal here was to recreate a famous art piece in photoshop. So the famous art i used were flowers in a vase painted by Vincent Van Gogh.
Here are some photoshop  hot keys that helped me complete this assignment.
Alt Delete: fills the forground
command A: selects all. (also known as the marching ants.)
command C: copy image
command V: is to paste the image you have copied.
command T: free transform (morphs the image so you can either rotate, or scale it.)
Shift: adds from the selection.
Alt: subtracts from the selection
*hitting the alt key when the brush is selected will sample the color you click, an eyedropper should appear.*
Left bracket: shrinks the brush ([)
right bracket: enlarges the brush (])
Command+: zooms in
Command-: zooms out
holding the space bar gives you the hand tool.
Command 0: fits image to the screen.
F7: Layers pallet
*If you want to reset your workspace  go to essentials and hit default.*
Command D: deselects selections.
Command alt Z: moves back multiple steps. (in case you mess up real bad)
*if you can’t find the command keys they are on both sides of the space bar, and if its not named command then it is control which will be in the same place*
