Adobe Fresco App Now on Microsoft Windows

Released for iPad earlier this autumn, Adobe Fresco is now available on Windows, beginning on Microsoft Surface Pro X devices and Wacom MobileStudio Pro hardware. It provides a natural and versatile drawing and painting experience across devices by combining raster, vector and new Live Brushes. Powered by Adobe Sensei, the watercolor and oil Live Brushes mix and interact on the screen just as they would in real life. The product also allows artists to sync their favorite Photoshop brushes for a smooth roundtrip workflow between apps.

A thousand brushes with greatness

Work with watercolours and oils that blossom and blend at your touch. Use vector and raster brushes together on the same canvas. Access thousands of your favourites from Photoshop and celebrated master Kyle T. Webster. Adobe Fresco puts the world’s largest and most advanced selection of brushes right at your fingertips.

Harness the power of Adobe Sensei with Live Brushes that look, feel and act just like the real thing. Paint with watercolours that bloom and bleed in real time. Swirl and smudge creamy oils on your canvas and build up paint thickness for a 3D effect.

Artwork. Now a lot less work

Adobe have reimagined essential tools for illustrators that are faster and better for stylus and touch devices. Draw using a modernised selection and masking process that lets you isolate parts of a layer and turn selections into masks. Customise your UI to make it easier for left- or right-handed drawing. And switch to full-screen mode to clear your canvas of distractions.
