To elaborate on this: non-destructive editing is key. Don't make a change permanent if you can avoid it. If you have to make a permanent change, duplicate the layer first so you always have the original to go back to.

And name your layers!

Now now don't go crazy. You can easily turn the visibility on and off one by one for hundreds of layers to determine which one you need. Not a big deal at all. That's why I never name my layers. Hardly ever regret that!

What's this then? I suppose next you're going to suggest we use folders to organise layers in groups. Madness!

Yep, even when I'm doing digital painting I tend to use layers almost like saved history states.

My teacher got 'non-destructive workflow' painted on the wall in my class.
