Description

Tayasui Watercolor and Painting is the ultimate watercolor-focused drawing tool, with realistic brushes and an easy-to-use interface. We’ve created tools that feel like real ones, ensuring your watercolor paintings and sketches always look amazing.

Tools and Features

- Drawing Tools and Enhancements: With over 20 tools that mimic real-life drawing implements, Watercolor and Painting includes an array of options such as watercolor—featuring both dry and wet brushes that behave just like real paint on paper, pens, Rotring, felt pens, pen brushes, oil pastels, acrylic brushes, airbrushes
- Tracing Projector: allows users to project their sketches onto any surface, facilitating tracing. This tool significantly enhances the creative workflow by enabling broader applications of the artwork.
- Precision Tools: The application offers various rulers and magnetic shapes, including straight, arc, circle, and spline rulers, alongside symmetry and cutout shapes—perfect for laying out detailed watercolor compositions or adding structured elements within freeform washes.
- Color Management: The app includes a color eyedropper, mixer, and support for color palettes (.ase).
- Layer Management: With full layer support, users can build up watercolor paintings gradually, just like on paper. Export transparent PNGs or layered PSD files for further refinement in other software.
- Cloud Sync and Organization: All your watercolor projects are backed up and synchronized across devices. Sync settings can be managed per folder, and projects can be neatly organized into custom folders or digital sketchbooks, keeping your watercolor works easy to access and beautifully presented.
- Stylus and User Interface: Apple Pencil is fully supported, capturing pressure, tilt, and stroke width to simulate natural watercolor strokes. The minimalist interface stays out of your way while you paint, letting the focus remain on your watercolor expression.

With its advanced watercolor simulation and the unique tracing projector, Tayasui Watercolor and Painting stands out as a powerful and versatile tool for artists, illustrators, and creative professionals who want to bring watercolor to life in the digital world.

Editors’ Notes

Sketches Pro? It’s just like the Tayasui Sketches app we’re so enamored with… except it comes with layers, extra tools, and all sorts of expert features. If you’re a serious artist—or a longtime doodler like us—you can’t do better than Tayasui.

Keeps getting better

I’ve used this app since it came out in the AppStore and then the devs made a Pro version, not sure why but I’m not complaining. I use Procreate a lot but I enjoy the ease of use with Sketches and the brushes have some really nice effects. Through the various iterations they’ve added layers and canvas sizes and myriad other upgrades. I particularly enjoy the watercolor brushes and the ability to add water to the color to soften and blend. I just spent a couple of hours playing with each and every brush and it’s variations as I haven’t done that for awhile. The new pastel crayon is pretty neat and mimics an actual pastel stick. This is a robust art app but you have to take some time to play with all the brushes and textures, and I like the fact you can modify every color by press and hold the color. The pen tool is one of my favorites, it is akin to an ape tel brush pen with pressure sensitivity. There isn’t another one like it and I use it frequently. I am using this app on a iPhone 13 Pro Max, a 2020 iPad Pro 12.9” and an older iPad Pro 9.7”. No issues at all with bugs or crashing on any of them and I use it fairly often. It’s a terrific all around easy to use app for creative people and I’m so thankful they keep updating it to make it even better. Highly recommend!! 🎨

Love this app! I have used it for years!

When I went to write this review a very old review of mine propagated in the field. In the old review I talked about how I love the app but it sometimes blacks out and needed clipping masks. It’s crazy how far this app has come! It no longer crashes, there are now clipping masks and even overlay layer mode! Yay!!!!!! Also the line smoothing/stabilization is great! I am an artist who usually works in clip studio paint and I use this app for sketches when I am in a waiting room or riding in a car. There is just enough features for an experienced digital artist to not feel limited, but not so much that it is overwhelming. I highly recommend this app for those new to digital art because it will get you used to the basic needed features of more complicated programs! Also going into this app after working in clip studio always boosts my creativity because it forces me to go back to my roots (I started digital art with this app) and focus on the basics! I go here when I have massive art block and struggle to draw things I know well. This app helps me get over those slumps! Thank you for keeping it up for so many years! It is very underrated and needs more attention. ❤️💕❤️
