Grammarly Spell Checker & Grammar Checker A Dream Team Of Animators Creates The Ultimate Coloring Book The Picture Book Project Foundation is an effort to bring some vivid visual inspiration to kids who could really use it. Created by DreamWorks animation artists Rachel Tiep-Daniels and Margaret Wuller, and Pixar producer Karen Dufilho-Rosen, the project gathers illustrations by 66 talented artists to form the ultimate coloring book. Tiep-Daniels and Wuller decided to put their resources within the animation community into action after volunteering at an orphanage in Ghana, where they saw firsthand how the kids responded to having drawings created for them. Even in locations so far away from the typical pop culture exposure, kids were still requesting characters from popular Disney movies. The Picture Book Project Foundation features top-quality original artwork in both splashy full-color, and in a blank template for budding young artists to work off of. Profits from the book’s sales will go directly to orphanages in Ghana, West Africa; Tijuana; and Cambodia. Hat tip Cartoon Brew.

How To Create Photoshop Actions Photoshop actions are the best — they save time and make you more productive during post-processing. They can be used to speed up repetitive tasks, make quick work of time consuming edits, and give you a little creative inspiration. In several of my previous Photoshop articles I’ve given the option to download a set of actions that cover the topics discussed here on the blog. Want more great projects, amazing photos, Photoshop tips, and articles on photography? Subscribe to Epic Edits today (free!) so you don’t miss a thing. As I mentioned in my “Actions Teaser” post, I’ll be going through the basic steps of creating actions and give you some examples of how they can be used. Before you can do anything, you need to have the right tools in front of you. If your actions palette is nowhere to be found, you can activate it under the “Window” menu. Sets are a way to group actions as you see fit. OK, you’ve got some sequence of events you want to record and you’re ready to start the action.
