Can I have multiple colours on a brush in Fresco?

I haven't got Fresco yet but was wondering if it is possible to have multiple colors on a brush just like you would in real life painting?

What a great idea.

It doesn't look like you can create or import gradients as swatches into Fresco.
This is how I would expect a gradient to be made available for a brush.
Have a look at the Fresco UserVoice page, there's a few suggestions around gradients, you might want to add your voice to the discussions.

you do have a brush which is made up of two colours- in the vector and i think basic brushes you have an 'outline' option which brings up another colour, but these colours just sit next to each other , they dont blend. I agree that having the option of a broad brush that could take and blend two colours would be good , as you can do that in real life‚ but on Fresco: Not really

Thanks Sjaani,

 

Gradients would be useful but I'm not really talking about that just the idea to be able to use more than one colour on a brush to make them blend. i.e the force of pen on the colour might make it pick up the amount of colour you want and then click add to add another colour then paint using that mix
