    After playing with all the settings, I now realise the versatility of this app. The longer I spend on a painting the better it gets. Great fun, and I am improving every time.
  • Could improve

    This is the best app on my iPhone. Even then, I can suggest changes that would significantly improve performance. I am a professional artist and I paint atelier quality photo-real oil paintings as well as plein-air work. Despite my skill, I have incredible problems detailing with this app. I would suggest adding three tools: pencil, blur and smudge. The brush without paint is almost a smudge tool, but not quite. A pencil with a magnifier and crosshairs would allow precise editing, and a blur tool would make up for the clumsy finger painting. Also, it would be great to save custom named palettes. A filbert brush would be icing on the cake. Still, this is a great app!

  • I'm really impressed.

    And that's saying something, because I work with actual paint. None of the other drawing apps I've tried were anywhere near as realistic as this one, because this actually gives you the ability to customize your brushes. The brushes are also pressure-sensitive, so you don't feel like you're painting with a paint dobber on someone's windshield. The paint moves realistically, so if you put down a dry brush stroke on say, a rainbow you've painted, the dry brush will pull and shift the paint like the real thing would. So yes, high marks for this. Definitely worth purchasing. :)

  • Awesome

    I love to doodle all the time! And this app is just right for that! I use it all the time, and with the full version adding in pictures is great! I highly recommend this app for all the doodling and arty people! :)

    I got my brand new iPad, I very soon downloaded the free version of this, as there is a lot of choice out there, but this looked great for my initial needs. It's also been a long time since I have done any art, and the portability and practicality of the iPad makes getting back into a beloved hobby very easy. I very quickly bought the full version and so far am having a ball. Easy to use, and the "feel" is wonderful! I have been painting with it ever since... Would recommend, as it is a pleasure to use. It's great to be painting again!

  • Screen real estate

    I've had the iPad version for several months and absolutely love it. The iPhone version is just as good with a more compact interface. My only complaint is that it's hard to work on the finer details with so little screen real estate. Of course that's a hardware limitation. The software itself is phenomenal. The only thing that would make it better is if it had layers

  • Excellent!

    I have tried other drawing apps, and this one is the most realistic, have spent all morning painting on it, and probably going to spend all afternoon aswell! :)
  • NOT for iPad

    While this works really nicely, it is for the iPhone only.
    It comes up at iPhone size in the middle of the screen, and looks awful at 2x
    Wait until an HD version for the iPad is released.
    Describing it as compatible with the iPad is misleading - it IS compatible in that it runs, but that's all.
  • Must have for artists

    I got this app when it was free and just played around on it not really any professional stuff
    I soon fell in love with everything it has. Once you get the hang of all the tools you can draw some really cool stuff
    I recently got a stylus for my iTouch and the app was amazing to use on it
    A big bonus for this app is that you don't have to spend more money on brushes or paints, it comes altogether
    I recommend getting a stylus if you're drawing on this app it makes a big impact rather than just drawing with your finger

  • I'm surprised.

    I had bought this app long ago, at the time i was not used to the touch screen. After coming from painting on my ds with colors, the ipod screen was alien to me at first i have downloaded more art apps then i can remember. And despite it not being photoshop it is quickly becoming my fav.

    Alot of things i rely on i find i don't need in this app only i find the dry brush to be more then i thought it would and lately i had given up on art, this app is slowly relighting the passion i had for art for the first time in years.

    I find this app to be the easiest to pick up and start doodling heck most of the time i only use the basic brush.

    It may not be perfect for everyone but it has helped me quite a bit now. :)
