JixiPix Pastello 1.1.17 Portable

Pastello, the companion app to JixiPix’s Impresso Pro, takes you back in time to the 15th century. Away from brushes and large strokes and into the realm of dry media with color that is both brilliant and subtle. The “Dry color method” made famous by Leonardo da Vinci is so powerful in its simplicity and beauty with its black and red chalk and yellow pastel highlights. Later, artists would paint charming portraits in a smooth heavily blended fashion. Move forward a few centuries later and pastel quickly became filled with brilliant color and crisp detail. Fast forward to today and a digital age has made it so you, the artist, can mix and match media that is difficult or impossible in a traditional setting.

Pastello makes it simple and convenient. Simply place an image in the app and watch as it turns into a Pastel, Chalk, Charcoal, Crayon, Colored Pencil and Graphite drawing. Choose to use each one of the medias by themselves, or combining them using layers for an interesting expressive sketch full of colorful personality and passion. The best part is Pastello does all the work for you.

With Pastello, photographers and artists can now go beyond the camera to turn image files into creative works of art that resemble traditional handmade media, all with a professional workflow that is easy and comfortable to operate.

Features
A pro workflow automatically turns photos into a Pastel drawing with options to customize. The Pastel can then be changed to Chalk, Charcoal, Colored Pencil, Graphite, Conte or Crayon using the add option on Layers. As you create the drawing, the media starts out with delicate shading like a traditiona drawing does. Build up the shading and color by stacking multiple layers on top—the more you use the more they fill in. Each of the art styles are beautiful when used alone, or mix them together for an expressive artwork.

Pastello includes plenty of traditional sketch styles as well as a BONUS one we call DaVinci. This art style combines pencil, charcoal, crayon and old paper in the form of a preset with all the freedom to customize, blend and fine-tune for an artwork filled with age, depth and timeless beauty.
