So let me switch to my desktop just like that and, as you can see, I have opened it of the fresco. These are our sketch in it. Now I have two layers.

Sensitivity and pressure sensitivity is your friend tried to use precious pressure sensitivity in your advantage, so you can press harder inhale? Definitely you can apply more on a color. If you will press lightly, you will apply away as a color to your canvas. It'S like in our traditional painting just spend more time try to apply even pressure with your first layer of color, because it's in for the imported, it's our base, color. If you missed any pixels, don't panic you can feel any and painted pixels at any time. Also guys you can bring size of your brush down at any time, don't afraid periodical switch between a bigger and smaller size of your brush. It'S not hard! It'S very easy, so pay attention to your brush size, it's important. Typically, if you are working close to the edges of your sketch or some specific subject, hyhy didn't good to see you here. So this is our first layer. You can use similar to add a more towel as more brushstrokes. But if you know me, you know that I love a layers, so I will see I will create a new empty layer. I will switch to a darker shade of same color. I will click on this color dot and I will bring it down just like that. You know so I will bring size of my brush down. If you will use small size of your brush, you will create more detail painting and you will spend more time. Maybe it's good for the next few weeks, so just experiment just experiment to develop your own painting style. I will bring down the size of my brush about 86. I will see if I like it and using this brush. Yes, I will add a few: a brush. A few strokes of this car just like that, when you work with hair, the most important rule, is follow original curve of the hair are grown. It'S very important. If you will follow original online, you will create a realistic looking painting I'm periodically. Looking on my at- are monitored because there I have opened my chat and also I have my reference image over there. So what I'm doing right now, guys I'm applying just a few brush strokes of this dark brown color to my subject and again guys you can use a smaller size of your brush and you will create more detail image, but I don't want to spend a lot Of time here I don't want to keep you here more than you want to be, so I'm just giving you idea how you can start working on your hair painting in Adobe a fresco because guys, you ask me a lot about this and I decided to show How you can easy paint here in the double fresco today guys on periscope?

Most importantly pay attention to colors to a brush, strokes and just enjoy your creation. The rule number one point one enjoy: your creation enjoy your painting. This is the most important rule and guys Adobe fresco is very intuitive application. I love love, love, Adobe fresco.

Iran here, colors in shading and highlights, will help us to create a value and value is very important in our hair painting in fresco or Photoshop or any other application, or if you, using traditional method of painting, pay attention to pay extreme attention of to volume. Try to create a value and again very important, all highlights and shadows. They are always important in in painting workflow. If you more brush strokes, just like this and again guys are definitely definitely definitely you can create more a beautiful image than I'm trying to create right now, because I don't want to keep you here a longer than its supposed to be. We have about only 2025 minutes guys if you have patience, I'm repeating myself, but please don't hesitate, just ask if you want to see any specific tutorial in specific stream about Photoshop Illustrator, a Lightroom photography, painting, graphic design. Anything you like just ask. I will be more than happy to life dream about us any topic. You are more and more interested in few more a dark brushstrokes and we will switch color of our brush pencil to a lighter shade. Just like that and again guys pay attention to pressure sensitivity. Pressure sensitivity is a magic using a right pressure sensitivity. You can create a very impressive. You can create very impressive. Ah, what you can create very impressive shading transition between many different cards, so guys pay attention to pressure sensitivity if you're not comfortable with it, just open any creating new document in fresco and just apply a brush strokes brush stroke after brush stroke after brush stroke. After a few hours, you will be more comfortable, you will develop your own, a pressure, sensitivity and your own style. Now I will create a new empty wear, but I will create a new empty layer above our base layer. Have you select this layer? I will click. Oh, I'm sorry, I will create a new empty layer. I will switch color of my brush to lighter shade of same color. I will bring size of my brush just like that, and I will add a few brushstrokes of Isis at color. Just like this and again guys, a smaller size of your brush will help you to create more detail, detailed image, and yes, in this case, you will need to spend more time. It'S up to you guys. You can create a more detail image. You can create your painting in impressionist style. Everything is up to you. It'S all your creation, it's your army! So just like this, how are you this morning, Grinnell just like this and around here now. I will create before that. Let me add a few more brush strokes in here and around here, just like like this and again guys, I'm trying to work off fast, because we have 2025 minutes maximum. Now I will create a new empty layer above this layer. I will bring capacity of this layer down about probably 24. I will increase the size of my brush and I will add a few brush strokes of same color in here, but I'm doing here here guys, I'm basically smoothing out all a brush strokes. I'M blending all a brush strokes. Just like that now I just highlight my top layer. I will create a new empty layer and I will click on a darker shade of our brown tile boy scout and did you notice guys remembers all colors that we used in our current the command? It'S very helpful. I will increase size of my brush. I will bring down a paucity of my layer of my brush, I'm sorry and I will bring down a paucity of my lid and I will add a few splashes of brown color to our hair and, as you can see, we blending all colors together. Just like this now guys to save our time, I will start applying a share, a shade and highlight a but before I will start doing this, I would like to point out that, if I will have more time definitely I will spend more time about maybe hour. Maybe two hour hours to creating short and thin brush strokes to create a more detailed image. But again we don't have so much time. So I will create a new empty layer. I will use darker shade of brown color. I will bring capacity of my brush up flow value is hundred percent. I will bring size of my brush down, basically, and I will add a few splashes of a dark color. Basically, I'm shading on top of her hair. Just like that and again guys, our hair painting is where is very easy. If you follow original course of the hair are grown, it's important just maybe before you will start working on some hair painting, you will spend a 15:30 means just a loop just paying attention to all details of your subject and it I can guarantee it will help You to create more detail and a more beautiful hair painting art just like this, maybe around here now. What I will do, I will create a new empty layer. I will use that in lighter shade of same color. We used it before and I will add a few splashes of this light color, but I will bring size of my brush down just immediate guys pressure sensitivity. Is your friend also don't forget that you can change opacity of any layer? You can um bring down value flow value at any time. Flow value is basically a paucity of your a brush and don't be scared of experimenting with your brush setting. You can restore your brush at any time now. I will bring down a positive of this layer. I will create a new empty layer. I will use lighter shade of same color. I will bring a flow value down about 40 for it, I will add a few splashes of highlights around here, as I said before, highlights are very important. Shadows are important as of well just like sis and again guys play with your brush size. You don't have to stuck with one a size of your brush and if you want to create more detailed painting use as many layers as you can, because example, if a few minutes later, you will decide that you know this. A part of highlight are too bright for me. You can easily fix it. Just blinking down opacity of this layer or you can change blend mode of a new layer, simple click or layer, properties, icon, and you will be able to blend a change a blend mode. At any time and change opacity of your aware at any time as of well just, why is this you give guys shadows and highlights are next to each other, where we have highlights there, we have all our shadows, it's very important to remember now. I will create a new empty layer. I will switch to darker shade of same color and I will add a few splashes of darker darkest color in my painting. Just like this and again change size of your brush at any time, use our pressure sensitivity and you always can undo anything you, like simply click on this arrow and you will be able to undo or anything you like. If you think you made a mistake, or you want to change anything, you not happy with some particular brush stroke. Just like that, using a highlight in our shadows, we are creating of value and value is super important in a painting in hair painting. Just like a little bit around here and again, smaller size of your brush will help you to create more detail painting, and this is important. It'S typically in hair painting. Now I will highlight my sketch layer. I will create a new empty layer. I will use light color for a skin tone. You can use any color for your ask in painting it's up to you just like that. I just want to show you and do not forget. You are create shadows under subject hair. It'S important. I will create a new empty layer. I will use a brown color and I will add, a few splashes of a shadow directly under her hair bun. Just like yeah and again because I use separate layer, I can bring down opacity of this layer just like this guys. I can continue working on this painting at least next two hours. If I want to create more detail on a painting I will spend for five or ten hours. If I want to be super, I want to create super detailed image. Definitely I will need to spend more time, but we don't have this time so guys.
