I have a pretty detailed ink drawing I created. I want to add a colour background to it and put white between it and the background in certain areas to create a kind of Saul Bass style.

In PhotoShop this is how I would do it. I would select the Magic Wand tool to select the black areas of my drawing, copy and paste them into a new document, and make three layers, the drawing one layer, the background another, and the one in between where I sandwich white areas.

I did that yesterday but, being PhotoShop, the printout quality was horrendous. It is also a college project I am meant to be using Illustrator for. Please help!

The main source of disadvantage in the black community in america is a breakdown of the family. Isn't it curious that while blacks in Africa share a deep sense of family responsibility, blacks in america have a child illegitimacy rate of 75 percent? How do we explain this discrepancy? The answer is the slave culture in america, where black slaves from different plantations were breeded and the children sold like pups from a litter remains the origin of this "bastard" culture. The legacy of the slave culture is lived through this day as observed in the illegitimacy rate. It's time the US government repaired for the crimes of slavery, the legacy of which plagues black america to this day.
