Any inexperienced user who opens Photoshop for the first time will likely be overwhelmed. The sheer number of buttons alone could easily intimidate someone with no prior knowledge of the software.
According to New York-based computer training school Noble Desktop, Photoshop’s pen tool is particularly challenging for beginners to get a grasp of, despite being one of the most commonly used features.

Noble Desktop adds that working with layers is another common difficulty that people encounter. The purported reason behind this is that editing the image simultaneously is the more sensible approach for any user, and adding layers into the mix makes it a more complex experience.

Veteran visual artist Linda Matthews admitted to going through some challenges in the beginning of her Photoshop journey. But after exploring the software through the years, she found the enjoyment in it.
“Although there was quite a learning curve in getting started, it eventually became my favorite creative tool and one I never grew tired of,” Matthews wrote in an article for her website, stating that Photoshop Elements is a much more user-friendly platform.

Photoshop’s complexity has led less-experienced users to more beginner-friendly platforms like Canva. However, mastering it opens different doors in terms of the visual arts. According to longtime graphic designer and illustrator Mario Macari, creating 3D models is one of them.
“You can use the Layer Mask tool to blend photos and create unique effects, and you can use the painting tools to create custom artwork. You can also use the text tools to create custom text effects,” he wrote in an article for Concordia University Wisconsin.

Macari strongly recommends exploring Photoshop and all of its features. As he stated, the versatility of the platform allows you to use it for a wide range of projects, whether it’s web design or creating eye-catching visuals for social media.
As for its reputed complexity, Macari urges making the most out of tutorials and guides, all of which are beginner-friendly, as well.
“Photoshop also has a huge community of users who can provide help and advice when you get stuck,” he wrote.
