Fantastic app

This app does everything I need to learn and continue to develop with oil painting, all within one app. It's extremely helpful and lots of fun to use and gets me painting more, which is always a good idea! Clearly developed by someone who knows exactly what painters need. I believe it would be an incredibly useful tool for artists of all levels. Highly and unconditionally recommended. Very happy I found it.

Good tool

I saw this app on social media and thought it looked interesting. I decided to buy it because I was starting a very large painting and thought the app could help with the underpainting. And it did. I like the simplified image and the color swatches.

Génial

Vraiment très pratique. Ça vaut vraiment la peine.

Usefull

Outstanding!

This is by far the best painting app that I’ve ever used!! It’s a must for artists.
Updated: just when I thought it couldn’t get any better it did!!

Response from developer

Appreciate that! Humbled to hear you consider it the best painting app -- thank you!

Time saver

Cuts your time to a minimum on preparation and transformative for ideas and use drawing facility. It’s a game changer.

Very cool, would use, but for a one-time purchase not a subscription

The app is very cool, I think I would find it very useful, and I can see how it’d improve my painting especially the value and simplification modes.

But I don’t want a subscription :-(

Love it!!! Please mor oil brands for a pallet!

I’m absolutely in love with this app. It’s such a valuable and inspiring tool for artists, whether they’re just starting out or already working professionally.
I would love to know if you’re planning to expand the oil paint palette in the future and include brands such as Old Holland, Williamsburg, Michael Harding, Rembrandt, Charvin, and Rublev. That would make an already wonderful app even more useful for painters.

Thanks so much! I loved this review and your enthusiasm -- made my day! Happy it is helping save time, even for a professional artist. Grateful for your support and being a part of this.

SUB REQUIRED

Finally a proper attempt at this, but eww - requires subscription to do anything useful for a painter. Also how do a few pigment lists add up to 200MB; I shudder to look under the hood.

I usually don’t write reviews

But this app has seriously improved my painting. Only
note ( and I don’t think this is the apps fault ) is that although it has a vast library of paint colors ( I work in oil ) , some are not there. This is to be expected, I assume there is just such a vast variety of color out there that it’s impossible to capture everything (looking at you turquoise cobolt). Easy solution is to find the closest color to that in which is missing. Would be cool if you can add color to the library yourself, maybe this already is a feature that I have not discovered yet.

This app fills that gap I have that would have most likely been filled with years of formal training. Also the yearly subscription fee of $25 is kind of a steal, if you’re using as I do. Really great, one of the few instances an ad got me and I was impressed.

amazing app

this app is amazing I have been looking for a app like this for so long. This has improved my painting journey.

Great app

I love the functionality-really useful tool -Thankyou
Great value !!

Just Wow

Head and shoulders above all other apps of this type and fully functional without any required paid upgrades. So quick to do something that I used to need photoshop for!

Amazing!

I don’t generally leave reviews, but I wanted you to know how incredibly helpful the app is-and to thank you for your YouTube video walk-throughs!!! INCREDIBLE!

I love but add more paint brands

The app is so so great, the only thing i wish is that there were more paint brands and colours on the pallette part, it makes it difficult to use the mixing feature

Where have you been

I cannot tell you how fantastic this program is if you’re an artist, I don’t care if you got years behind you or you’re an expert on color this program is absolutely fantastic for helping it to isolate and ascertain exactly what a mix in a color is not to mention the other valuable valuable parts of the app color temperature no tan and my favorite posterized. I don’t know who wrote this program. I love you forever. I would pay you for this program. I’d love to make a donation.
