Unleash your inner artist! Transform your drawings and paintings with Artist's Eye, the innovative app that lets you create stunning artwork using real pens or pencils.
Simply choose a model image (like a photo) and watch as your drawing appears on your phone or tablet screen (camera required). The model image will be semi-transparent, overlaying your work to help you trace outlines – a modern take on the centuries-old camera lucida technique (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camera_lucida).
For optimal results, use a stand to keep your device steady, freeing both hands for drawing. This isn't cheating; it's a revolutionary new way to learn and create!
Watch the video tutorial! Many low ratings stem from users misunderstanding the app's functionality.
Tip: Samsung and LG phones lacking a dedicated menu button often access the menu by long-pressing the task-switching button.
