going to begin by making the brush for the background.
Open your
arcade2 tube.

rectangle with your Selection tool,
by beginning
exactly at the center top of the
image and
then outwards to the left and ...down to the bottom.
Edit

3. Open a new
transparent canvas of 650x650 pixels

your Eraser Tool.
