OVERVIEW
How many times have you been drawing a portrait for hours only to realize that the nose or the eye is in the wrong place? You can use Da Vinci Eye to layout artwork before you begin or even check your work as you progress.
Having a hard time seeing where lights or darks go? Breakdown images into layers by color value. Then virtually project those layers on top of your image. You can see exactly where to place the darkest darks, mid-tones, and highlights.
CAN'T THINK OF WHAT TO DRAW?
Check out our inspiration section for user uploaded reference photos. If you have a great pic, you can even upload your own content for other artists to draw.
LEARNING HOW TO DRAW?
We have lessons using our unique patent-pending learning method. You can also turn ANY photo into a step by step shading drawing lesson.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
Based on a tool that has been used by artists for centuries, this app is a digital version of a Camera Lucida.
You suspend your iPhone or iPad above or in front of your canvas with a stand, tall glass, or other objects easily found around your house.
When you look through your phone, you will see both the image and the canvas simultaneously. It's similar in functionality to an art projector or light box, but with the ability to do so much more.
You can draw on any surface, zoom in to draw micro details in your drawing, and you don't have to draw in the dark.
WILL THIS HELP ME LEARN HOW TO DRAW?
Using Da Vinci Eye, you will be training your eye to recognize proportions and draw with shading while training your hand to translate precise lines and strokes on paper. You’ll learn faster and more efficiently using our proven techniques compared to any other app.
AR MODE REQUIREMENTS
To use AR mode, you must have an A10x or A11 processor and above. We recommend using:
– iPhone 8 and newer (iPhone 7 and below will not work)
– iPad Mini 5th Generation and newer
– iPad Air 2019 and newer
– iPad Pro 3rd Gen (Any pro made after 2018) and newer
AR & CLASSIC MODE
AR mode anchors your image to an object in the real world. This lets you move your canvas or phone, and the drawing and projected image will stay aligned.
Classic mode is like a normal art projector, where if you move your phone or canvas, the drawing will no longer be aligned.
AR mode is especially useful for drawing or painting on an easel. However, in most cases, Classic mode will achieve the same result.

Ratings and Reviews
Good but…
When using the Da Vinci Eye app, I've come across an issue where, when drawing on a light surface, even with low image opacity, the whites appear more opaque than the blacks. There are times when I can't even see the pencil. It would be greatly beneficial if there were options to adjust the opacity of the whites or if two additional projection modes, "Darken" and "Lighten," similar to Photoshop blend modes, could be added. This would be especially helpful for artists who draw on tan and gray paper.
Hate
Bery bad app
Ones you download they ask money for drawing 😤
Developer Response ,
Hi There, You do not need to upgrade to the pro version to use most of the app. You can trace thousands of photos uploaded to the app, the inspiration of the day, and do all of the in app lessons for free without signing up for a trial, just press the X in the top right corner of the screen when it asks if you would like to upgrade to use the free version of the app. We continuously update the app with new features, provide insanely fast customers support, and maintain the app to make sure it runs smoothly with every new iOS update. We're a small two person team and your support of less than a cup of coffee per month makes a huge impact. As much as we would like to make the app free we have to eat too. If you have any questions at all about the trial or the free version of the app let me know, we respond extremely fast to emails, info@davincieye.com.
