Sketchbook Express app


Finger painting’s for kids. At least, that’s what everyone thought until smartphones proved otherwise (or, more accurately, when artists using smartphones proved otherwise). Once David Hockney started showing off compositions made using his devices, that was that, with Jorge Colombo’s New Yorker cover art, created in Brushes for iPhone, a coda with a painterly flourish.
Today, even free apps provide massive scope for artists on the go, and SketchBook Express gives you layers, opacity control, 15 preset brushes, and a transform tool. And if you don’t have an artistic bone in your body, you can always use it for adding stupid cartoon glasses and beards to pictures of cute kittens.
