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
Version 5.6.3
[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.
Ratings and Reviews
Great feel of mixing and texture
This is a fun, simple app packing a surprising amount of functionality. I wish it was combined with the developers other drawing apps that all work the same way but with different brushes. Having them separate seems very artificial and weird and I want to use all the brushes together.
To put it meanly all these apps from this person work the exact same except for the older Chill Paint, but stop you from using the brushes together to make you buy the same pro features multiple times. To put it nicely, it keeps the apps individually simple and lets people find what they’re searching for on the App Store in specific terms I guess. Still, it’s silly! I want to use all the brushes together!
Basically I’m peeved because I like these apps so much. I wouldn't care if they were lame. Definitely give it a download. They pack a punch with a surprising number of features.
All these apps are missing some really basic stuff I’d expect of an art app but also have a bunch of features, once you buy pro, that I wish all art apps had. You’ll have to give it a try yourself.
The color modulation and colorizer (pro) are awesome. Wish it had lasso select and less clunky layer movement. The palette system is nice.
Wow very beautiful high quality drawing app
I was looking for the perfect painting app till suddenly I stumbled upon this app the bright paintings in the images caught my eye instantly so I decided I would download this app and it was amazing I made many paintings really my favorite one I made was the drizzled glitter star 💫 I recommend that a lot of professional artists have to use this wonderful painting game and I painted very very well my mom and dad also my friends were impressed so if you want to impress your friends by beautiful pastel drawings and paintings get this app it’s free no ads no trials free
𝔾𝕣𝕖𝕒𝕥 𝕓𝕦𝕥 𝕙𝕒𝕣𝕕
When I first got this app it was really fun I made something and it was really cute and then it got hard making more cute stuff because I watch me more cute stuff that were even cuter it’s easy to make the first thing then it is to make the other stuff because if you make some things that’s cool and cute it’s gonna be hard but if you like make a color mixed together and you had sunglasses and cat ears it’s really hard so just make the cool stuff Wall it easy because then you’re not gonna be able to do it
