✅ VIDEO SUMMARY
To find the Pen Tool in Adobe Photoshop, go to the left hand tool bar and you should find it positioned just above the Type Tool, or you can press the shortcut "P" on your keyboard. You can create points by pressing your left mouse key anywhere on your canvas. Everytime you create a new point, Photoshop will connect it with the previous and form a shape. To complete the shape, simply go back to the first point you created and press on it again. You can then either fill, stroke or create a selection from the path you've made!
