Lake: Adult Colouring Books

Relaxing ASMR Drawing App

View

Looking for an artistic way to relax while supporting illustrators from all over the world? Serenely scribble your way through Lake.

What we love: The app channels all the real-life things we love about painting. With haptic feedback, you can feel the brushstrokes as they move across the screen. And the brushes are hyperrealistic, so it’s easy to play with textures and layer colours like you would on a canvas.

Lake’s daily colouring journal creates a custom palette based on your mood.

Quick tip: Some drawings are free, but you can access every drawing in the app (and the custom palettes created by their artists) with a monthly or yearly subscription. Take heart knowing your purchase goes to a worthy cause: Lake offers a revenue-sharing plan for its artists.

Meet the creator: Goran Ivašić, Katarina Lotric, and Luka Orešnik co-founded Lake in 2016 with 11 illustrators on board. The app won an Apple Design Award in 2017 and now has the largest collection of colouring books by indie artists.
