Modifying Your Selections

	You don’t have to use the same tool to add to your selection that you used to create the original selection. Feel free to use whatever selection tool you think can get the job done. For example it is very common to start off with the Magic Wand and fine-tune with the Lasso tool.

Painting with the Selection Brush

If you like the more organic feel of painting on a canvas, you’ll appreciate the Selection Brush. Using two different modes, you can either paint over areas of an image that you want to select or paint over areas you don’t want to select. This great tool also lets you make a basic, rudimentary selection with another tool, such as the Lasso, and then fine-tune the selection by brushing additional pixels into or out of the selection.

• Brush Presets: Choose a brush from the presets drop-down palette. To load additional brushes, click the downward-pointing arrow to the left of Default Brushes and choose the preset library of your choice. You can select the Load Brushes command from the palette pop-up menu.
