Description

A painting app for all artists, whether you’re experienced or just starting out.
Perfect for creating beautiful works of art or a quick sketch whenever you have a burst of inspiration.
You can also try out ideas and compositions before starting on a new painting in real life, or practise and refine your skills, all without the added cost of art supplies.

• LIFELIKE PASTEL SIMULATION •
The app features live-calculated brushes and strokes, making a realistic pastel simulation possible.
Painting tools include soft pastels, oil pastels, pastel pencils, smudge tool, and more.

• REALISTIC PAPER/CANVAS TEXTURES •
When creating a new picture, a unique, non-repeating paper texture is generated that will interact in real-time with the live-calculated strokes you paint.
You can change the default-generated texture to, for example, canvas, which goes great with oil pastels!

• PRECISE COLOR BLENDING •
When painting, especially with soft pastels, use Smudge or the Cotton Swab to blend and smoothen the colors right on the paper, as you would in real life.
With oil pastels, in addition to smudging, the blending is often done by the pastel sticks themselves (for best results, reduce the force or use a similar or lighter color).

• APPLE SILICON •
Native support for Apple Silicon.

• UNIVERSAL PURCHASE •
If you choose to buy the Pro upgrade, this one-time in-app purchase will unlock all Pro features in the app on all available platforms (Mac-iPad-iPhone)!

• METAL •
The engine is based on Metal, with 128-bit color and floating-point arithmetic.

• SWIFT •
The app was developed entirely using Swift (earlier versions used C++).

• FULL SCREEN PAINTING • SEAMLESS PATTERN EDITING MODE •
• DARK MODE • TOUCH BAR SUPPORT • WIDE COLOR •
• MULTIPLE LAYERS • PHOTO TRACING MODE (Pro feature) •

What’s New

[NEW] Added “Reset to Default” button to the Scrollable Palette Area menu (to open that menu, scroll the palette to its beginning and click the largest of the three buttons that appear).
[FIXED] A couple of rare user interface layout glitches.
[FIXED] In Work in Progress (Gallery), in some cases, buttons would erroneously be disabled after importing a picture.
[FIXED] Dropping multiple files on the app icon did not always place the imported pics grouped together.
[IMPROVED] Some optimizations.
[IMPROVED] A few minor things.

It hurts my eyes

When I saw the game I thought it would be so much better, and the yellow paper just doesn’t work. It probably is a lot better for other people more than me, but it was still an ok game.
