The eyedropper is one of the most commonly used tools in Photoshop. It allows you to select a color from an image and then use that color in your own image. Here’s how to use the eyedropper tool:

1. First, open the image that you want to select a color from.

2. Then, click on the Eyedropper tool in the toolbar on the left side of the screen. It looks like a small dropper.

3. Once you have selected the Eyedropper tool, click on the color that you want to select in the image. The color will be added to your “foreground” color in Photoshop.

4. To use the color you’ve selected, simply create a new layer and use the paintbrush tool to paint with the new color.

Conclusion:

The eyedropper tool is a quick and easy way to select a color from an image and use it in your own project. Simply click on the desired color with the Eyedropper tool and then create a new layer to paint with that color.

PRO TIP: The eyedropper tool in Photoshop can be used to select a color from an image and then apply that color to another layer or element in the image. However, if the color you select is not in the image, it may not appear as you expect it to.
