How do you add a layer mask to a particular layer?


You click on the layer you wan to the mask to be on. Then you go to the bottom of your layers palette and find the button that's a grey box with a white circle inside click on it.


What 2 colors are used to create the mask?


Black & white. 


Describe the process of using the layer mask.


First you have to put the mask on the layer, like I stated earlier. Then, you have to go to the brush tool and adjust the size & hardness (for this project you'd want 100% hardness). Then you start "painting" in your picture. You'll notice you picture will erase. If you mess up and need to fix it, go down to the bottom left side and switch the black and white.
