Quick Poses is THE ultimate tool to help artists sharpen their drawing skills by simulating REAL LIFE academic figure drawing sessions. Select your pose duration, choose your favorite photo galleries, and start drawing right away! Train your observation and anatomy skills with Quick Poses. The goal is simple: capture the ESSENCE of each pose within a limited time. As soon as the timer runs out, a new pose appears, keeping you focused and in the flow. At the end of your session, a SUMMARY gives you a clear picture of your progress. Over time, track your improvement in the HISTORY section and see how your skills evolve. This practice, called GESTURE DRAWING, is one of the BEST ways to build confidence, observation accuracy, and dynamic composition. It’s also an excellent warm-up before longer drawing sessions. FEATURE HIGHLIGHTS • CUSTOMIZE pose durations anywhere from 5 SECONDS to INFINITY. • CONTROL your total session time by limiting the number of poses. • ADD a short WARMUP DELAY before each pose to prepare your workspace or materials. • USE your APPLE PENCIL directly on screen, and analyze your sketches after each session. • ACCESS the full TOOL PICKER for longer poses to unleash your creativity with more tools and colors. • SWITCH your drawing side for LEFT or RIGHT-HANDED comfort. • USE iPad MULTITASKING or PICTURE-IN-PICTURE to draw in your favorite app like Procreate with more screen real estate. • APPLY basic IMAGE EFFECTS (monochrome, 2-tones, 4-tones, line overlay, blur) to study poses in a whole new way. • ENJOY 7 BUILT-IN GALLERIES featuring various subjects (people, animals). • ADD your own galleries easily with the integrated GALLERY EDITOR (optional in-app purchase required). • DISPLAY poses in ORDER or RANDOM sequence. • REVIEW your past sessions in the HISTORY SCREEN and MEASURE your progress over time. • EXPORT your best drawings to share, print, or refine further in another app. • YOUR PRIVACY MATTERS – all your data stays on device unless you choose to share it. Master gesture drawing, stay motivated, and see your art grow session after session with Quick Poses.
