Drawing and Painting on the iPad

The iPad is an incredible tool, but how can an artist unlock its exciting and creative potential? This book explains, in simple terms, all the processes and techniques it offers. For the novice, it gives a step-by-step guide to the tools and screen, and introduces concepts progressively as you expand your skills. For those with more experience, it suggests advanced ideas, and provides inspiration to try new techniques and develop your artistic journey. This new book also acts as a guide to the artistic toolbox - using effects such as drawing with pencil, painting in oils, working with watercolour, using felt tip pens and wax crayons - all on your lap without fuss and mess. Clearly graded exercises explain how to make pictures using the ArtRage app and it also covers taking and editing photographs, printing your images on a domestic printer, framing and selling your prints. A practical guide to everything you need to know, in simple terms, to get drawing and painting on the iPad, superbly illustrated with 254 colour images.
