Canva Vs. Photoshop

[Dominique]

I have basic skills with Canva, but I have never used Photoshop. Do you think I should spend time learning and mastering Photoshop to build my graphic designing skills or do you think learning Canva skills will be sufficient for me to become a graphic designer?

I've done some pretty cool stuff with Canva and, when I don't really want to spend too much time with the layers in Photoshop, I'll create a template in Canva and then use it. Pretty strong tool.

Yes, 8t 8s really easy to use canva, you can start with existing templates, which saves a lot of time, but what about the originality of your designs. Canva templates are used by a lot of people, right?

Canva is good for quick design but if you want to create elaborate design and want to create a unique piece, Canva is pretty useless. Canva is do it yourself tool for general people, Photoshop is for professionals.

Canva is awesome no doubt, but if you want to take creativity to the next level, then having skills in Photoshop would be recommended.
