Painting using one layer but created on a separate layer?
Let's say I open a picture to draw over
I was wondering if it's possible to draw on a separate layer while obtaining the same result from each brush stroke as I would if I were to draw directly on the picture's layer.
This way I could switch the visibility on or off on the layer containing the imported picture and see only the brush strokes residing on another layer.
The idea would be so that I can save only the brush strokes as a PNG file and use this in other programs if I wish to play around with it further using tools other program
Expressed differently,
Looking for a way way to create a link which will refer to those layers when applying stroke to the new layer
Could link more than one layer
