How To Make Vector Art in Adobe Fresco! From Sketch to Finished Products.

Creating your artwork in vector format gives it incredible versatility. Being able to create vector artwork can open the doors to a lot of different project opportunities as an illustrator. In the past, this was a bit more complicated. But we're not in the past anymore, the future is here!
In Adobe Fresco, drawing in vector is just as easy as working in traditional pixel brushes—like you would in Procreate. In fact, it's actually easier in some ways as a result of an amazing trick called Vector Trimming that I'll show you how to use!
In Adobe Fresco you can create vector artwork easily without having to wrestle with the pen tool in illustrator, mastering the fine art of bezier curves. In this video I walk through my process from sketch to final art on a recent project I worked on including engraved wood graphics, a t-shirt design, custom sticker sheet, and a custom marker.

Not enough people talk about Fresco. Procreate is great for painting and sketching but the lack of vectors is a modern graphic designer’s nightmare 😂
-
more vector training than my whole college experience

Chris, my dude. THANK YOU. I can’t tell you how many Google searches I’ve done looking for a program that allows me to draw like I can on Procreate, but in vector form so I can up my game. You are literally the first source I’ve found that has shown me the ways a program is similar in that way to Procreate. Everything else I’ve watched/read has been very vector node based (like in Illustrator), with very little info on the drawing capabilities. After months of research, you are the person who finally helped me decide on which program to purchase! Thank you, fellow ADHDer, for putting such informative and clear information out there for fellow creatives!

I just recently started using Fresco and its been a godsend. This video helped me out tremendously. Procreate has been my comfort zone for the past few years but I've been wanting to switch to vector artwork for my graphic commissions. Creating on Illustrator always felt unnatural to me as an artist. Thanks for sharing your Fresco + Illustrator process.
-
Great intro to Fresco (or refresher if you haven’t used it in a bit) especially love the process tips! And that vector trimming is gonna be magic! Thank you!

Chris, just found your channel today! Really excited to get more familiar with Fresco. I've been a designer for the last 15 years, but haven't done branding work in a while. This tool is just what I wanted five years ago when branding was all I was doing. Can't wait to use this for my brand work!!!

This tutorial is SO helpful. I love your teaching style - calm, thorough, and approachable. 👏🏽
-
Amazing. I use illustrator regularly for 10+ years now and just started using procreate a year ago or so. I am kind of confused about raster, coloring, and printing output in procreate but still like the feeling of painting with pencil there. This Fresco is going to be promising. Thank you for sharing!
-
Ok I must say, wow! Vector art has come ALONG way! I was intimidated by Illustrator years and years ago, I couldnt get the hang of it. And I havent tried it since, I didnt realize fresco was a thing util very recently and its so much easier now!
-
Stumbling on your videos was the greatest thing to ever happen to me! I just made my first vector logo and it took me all day, but I was able to use your videos to figure things out and get it done. I never thought I’d be able to ever create vector images and now a whole new world of possibilities are open to me to create. Thank you
-
That video was an awesome breakdown. I love your art but your editing is right up there.
-
This is great. Especially when you use the default brushes. I hate when people use a custom or bought brush in a tutorial
-
I'm nowhere near a pro, but your point about not being able to get ideas out unless the feeling of "pen and paper" hit home for me. No matter the media I have this issue. But on the iPad I feel it holding me back more. So thanks for putting that feeling into words!
-
Thank you soo much!!! Loved this video! It's so good to see how you work from start to finish
-
Invaluable information! Thank you! 🙂👍🏾
-
Thank you so soo much! This is very helpful for me as a beginner with Fresco and hopefully use it on my prints as well. I'm very inspired!🔥
-
dude i just found your channel from the ipad stand thing and am hooked so glad you popped up!
-
Great video and simple instructions dipping my toes back into making my own vectors for lasering projects
-
This is actually THE BEST art tutorial I have seen on YouTube! This is so informative and inspiring Thank you so much 😢 Subscribing now Love your work!
