Select Adjust Colors then check it out, but for my layer, I chose Dramatic, just because I wanted a more bluish look. Pixelmator has amazing color adjustments and filters.

To finalize the image I added text with Happy 2019 plus a new layer fill with black on top of all of the other layers. That will add some motion to your composition. Select Zoom then move the little handle to the right. Select the layer with the sparkles and go to Add Effects (little start icon). Now, literally, just paint over this layer with this brush to create amazing sparkles. That will make the blending much smoother. One important thing to do is to change the Opacity of these layers to 70% or so. I also added another layer, then I selected the Brush Tool (B) and the Broken Spray with default properties and white color. I added a layer with the new Abduzeedo logo in white. Inside that group, you can add more layers to add a more dramatic look. Nothing will happen immediately, however, start moving the layer to the right or even scaling it down and you will see how awesome this eclipse effect is. Simply add Fill with black color (#000000). Tweak the opacity of the circle layer to reduce the strength of the effect. You will notice that we have already an interesting effect happening. The last thing to do is to change the group Opacity to Color Dodge at 100%. Then inside of this folder add another layer and fill with pure black (#000000) using the Fill Tool (N). We just want it to be inside of a folder if you will. ThatвЂ™s pretty much the most important parts of the whole composition. Select the Gradient Tool (G) and paint over the layer to create something like the image below.

You will notice that the thumbnail of the layer will turn to a full white. Then with the right click select Add Mask. Select the layer from the Thumbnails, thereвЂ™s an option to show them on the top left. Then add a new layer and paint a big circle like the image below. Change color of the brush use pure white. For the properties use 2300px for the size, 20% Softness, and 100% Opacity. With the Brush Tool (B), select the Basic Brush. Step 1ДЇor the first step letвЂ™s fill up the layer with a solid color using the Color Fill Tool. The image below is with the Arrange Tool selected. ItвЂ™s very contextual and everything moves super smoothly. You have the toolbar with icons right on the right side, and when you select one, the properties panel load on the right column. In terms of panels, everything now is on the right side. Everything is in a big container, it actually reminds me of Apple Keynote (the last time I used Keynote was two years ago, so bear with me). The new one is much more aligned with Apple interface guidelines I assume. I was used to the old interface, where things were more floaty.

Opening Pixelmator Pro for the first time was quite a shock. ItвЂ™s a case study/tutorial but I will try to highlight a bit more of the UI. So for the first experiment, I would like to share my experience in creating a simple image using the new Pixelmator Pro. Honestly, I just want to have fun and experiment a bit more and I hope you enjoy it.

These experiments can be with Photoshop, Pixelmator, Sketch, Figma, or even code with HTML/CSS or Android Studio. Completely casual, not focus on trends or styles, just try to do things I like. Quite an interesting journey looking back.ДЇor this year I want to go back to some of those experiments. For my surprise, they replied, I got to play with Pixelmator and I ended up writing a few tutorials that were part of their website. I sent them an email asking to get an invite to try the beta. It was a beautiful video with even more beautiful interface design. I remember around 2007/2008, I am not sure exactly when it was, but I saw a video of a brand new tool called Pixelmator. Back in the day I really wanted to share inspiration and some experiments I was doing, especially using Photoshop. I can believe itвЂ™s been already more than 12 years since I started Abduzeedo.
