How Do I Make a Curved Shape in Photoshop?

Last updated on September 23, 2022 @ 10:53 pm

There are a couple different ways that you can make a curved shape in Photoshop. One way is to use the Pen tool.

With the Pen tool selected, click and drag to create a curved line. You can also use the Convert Point tool to click and drag on the line to change its shape.

Another way to create a curved shape is to use the Ellipse tool. To create a perfect circle, hold down the Shift key while you click and drag.

To create an ellipse, simply click and drag without holding down any keys. You can also hold down the Alt (Windows) / Option (Mac) key to create a circle with its center point at the location where you initially clicked.

Once you’ve created your shape, you can add color by going to the Edit menu and selecting Fill. Choose your desired color from the pop-up menu, and then click OK. You can also add a stroke (outline) around your shape by going to Edit > Stroke. Choose your desired color and width, and then click OK.

PRO TIP: When creating a curved shape in Photoshop, it is important to use the correct tool. The Pen Tool is the best choice for creating precise curves. However, if you are not familiar with the Pen Tool, the Shape Tools can also be used to create curved shapes. Be aware that the Shape Tools may create less precise curves than the Pen Tool.

To make a curved shape in Photoshop, you can either use the Pen tool or the Ellipse tool. To change the shape of your curves, you can use the Convert Point tool. You can add color to your shapes by going to Edit > Fill, and adding a stroke by going to Edit > Stroke.
