I was honored to be part of the testers for the pre release of Adobe Fresco (Project Gemini) from AUgust 1 to ???

This was my first try at using Fresco. I had to familiarise myself with the interface and the tools. It's pretty intuitive.

I missed the smudge tool as I was used to smudge in order ti blend the colors of the underlayer.

I have learned that the easiest way to blend is to use Fresco's Oil brushes (see the rose below).

But I still need to learn how to blend wel with the other brushes.

this was my second try at Adobe Fresco with the pixel brushes. The blending is better but not really as I wanted. I still have to learn how to use them properly.

I missed the possibility to select the content of an entire layer (ctrl + clic the layer tumbnail in Photoshop). I had to work with masks intead.

I selected the layer with the content I wanted to select, I made a mask and I copied the mask on the layer I wanted to work on.

I founded this pretty disturbing at the beginning but It's an another way to work.

This was an attempt to see what I could achieve with the oil brushes. It was going really wel. These brushes are a better match with my own way to work. But I still want to learn to use the other brushes as wel.

I have tried the same with the watercolour brushes. It's not bad but I prefer the one I did with the oil brush
