the last way I want to feel is “mental” or “techy”Īnd I always say expressive, relaxed, inspired and dynamic fashion illustration comes from an artist who FEELS GOOD. Meanwhile, Procreate and Adobe Fresco (and AutoDesk Sketchbook Pro) offer users zillions of little tick-boxes – apps like this instantly five me a feeling in my body that freezes up and gets mental and techy. I generally ONLY recommend Tayasui Sketches app for Fashion Illustration because of its clean, immediate interface (all of your tools are visible and no-nonsense accessible at a touch- best interface ever IMOP!).

I spent time weeding through Adobe Fresco for Fashion Illustration to make it as immediate, inuitive, and playful as possible for fashion illustration on the ipad or other device. I’ve been illustrating fashion for 30 years, and using apps for about 5 (to mimic the joy and dynamic effectiveness my favorite analog processes in gouache and pencils, ink pens, etc…). Ĭompare with the image below that shows the interface for the new app! See the simple toolbar at the left? That’s all we had to deal with in Adobe apps before Fresco.

Otherwise you’ll lose all of your OOMPH falling down rabbit hole after rabbit of options. After much exploration, I’ve discovered how to make Adobe Fresco for Fashion llustration do everything that I loved it for before the transition.īut it’s not an immediate thing, not easy for any beginner like the students who come to me! A lot of the tools need to be set aside or flat-out ignored to get started in a way that feels energized and comfortable.
