Adobe Fresco Gritty Texture Tutorial

In this video I'll guide you through various techniques to add texture to your artwork in Adobe Fresco. I'll show you step by step how to achieve that perfect distressed, punk rock, or vintage vibe, giving your creations a unique and authentic feel.

We'll start by exploring the easiest method – importing a paper texture image and playing with layer settings to control its impact on your artwork. I'll share some tips on where to find or create your own textures, ensuring you have complete control over the creative process.

Moving on, I'll introduce you to non-destructive methods ways to distress your illustrations. By changing the layer blend mode to "screen," we'll create transparency in the black areas, letting the underlying artwork shine through. Get ready to experiment with an array of textured brushes for endless creative possibilities.

To enhance that weathered look, we'll delve into additional techniques. I'll demonstrate how to use clipping masks for targeted adjustments, such as desaturating imported textures to eliminate unwanted color tones. We'll add subtle textures using brushes, adjust opacity, and introduce color overspray for an authentic vintage charm.

As we progress, I'll share advanced techniques like shifting layers to simulate print misalignment, and using gritty brushes as erasers to break up clean edges. The goal is to encourage playful experimentation within your artwork, showcasing how different brushes and adjustments can enhance the overall aesthetic.
