Change Colors later

Is there any possibility to change the color of my brush after I painted something? Like changing all greens to a blue (without creating a new layer and changing the layer mode - everytime I do this it effects all layers, even if I group them).. feel like I'm stuck to my colors now. Would probably use a clipping mask in Photoshop. Any ideas?

Hi Juliaha,

 

If you tap on a layer, and from the options, choose "Lock Transparency," you can then paint over the layer with any brush, and the colors will "paint inside" the existing colored areas. This is essentially like painting with a clipping mask active.
