Re: Painting using a projector and Photoshop
hi
the way to reduce colours in photoshop is to change your image mode to indexed color, selecting the number of colours you require; always work on a copy, not the original image
however I would then project that image onto the canvas and draw outlines over it and then colour these in using a printed image for reference
the way you suggest is unlikely to work unless the image is coloured only with flat pure tones, and even then I see no advantage in it
but of couse, without seeing exactly what it is you are working with and what you wish to achieve, I can only speak from my own experience and I have not used projectors for art in a long long while
youtube has tons of videos on the use of projectors in art...
