ART APPS FOR iPAD
The iPad is the perfect platform for creating digital art. Not so long ago touch-based design interfaces were prohibitively expensive, but now anyone with an iPad – and one of the very affordable apps on the market – can dive into the world of design.
It’s not just that iPad hardware has improved, though of course innovations like the Apple Pencil make working with graphics much more naturalistic. It’s also that developers have worked hard to make their apps advanced yet usable, bringing all the power and features of desktop design apps to the iPad platform in a way that hasn’t generally been achieved yet with other creative tools.
Obviously, you’ll get the most out of design apps if you bring some design skills to the table, but the apps we test here don’t pitch themselves at any particular skill level.
