Photoshop is mainly known as a pixel-pushing software, but vector art can come in handy in many situations.

Then with the pen tool in Photoshop, you’ll be able to further work on the cutout very productively and creatively because of the clean, reusable, and controllable nature of vectors. If you’ve already learned how to use Adobe Photoshop CC, you must have tried those things in one way or another.
