Mosaic | The ultimate artist's toolbox
A Collection of All Photoshop "Helper" Actions designed to give you full control over every aspect of your imagery. Quickly transform your photographs with one click.. You can also use many of these in a painterly way and target areas in your images you want to embolden, add more color, create drama or simply touch up.
You Spoke up and I listened. Many of those that love my actions, especially love the Helper actions. This is why I created a HUGE set of only Helper actions designed to help you take your processing to the next level with simple, beautiful adjustments. You can use these with any current processing you are already using and or any existing workflow you favor. You can also create a brand new style or processing look with this action set as well.
These actions are fully customizable and easy to use with instructions written within and a helpful video included in your download on how I use them. Whether you are looking for just a little bit of polish or a huge dramatic effect, you can achieve that with these actions.
Included are 44 Helper Actions in total.

The best part of this set is you can use all of these actions together to build an entire edit or you can just use the actions in this set to build on your current processing. I have been using many of these actions in my own workflow for years now and am excited to share them with you.
Quick Tips
For Getting the Most out of these Actions
Run one action at a time and flatten in between. Make sure you tweak the opacities and play with the adjustment layers while you find a combo that works for you. For the record my favorites are Serendipity, Bold and Rich, Paint Candy Color, and Velvety Skin on allll the things. The actions typically work best if run on the background layer.
Many of the helper actions also include masks so you can paint the effect on right where you want it! Super easy!
Basically, don't leave anything as it is! And make sure to watch the included video to learn some of my favorite tricks for editing with actions to streamline your own workflow!
