description Procreate for iPad Overview
Built specifically for iPad, Procreate puts digital painting and illustration into a touch interface with Apple Pencil support. Its included library contains more than 200 brushes, while brush customization lets artists adjust how marks respond and build tools for particular drawing styles. Layers, masks and blend modes allow separate parts of an image to be developed without repainting the whole composition. High-resolution canvases support detailed work, although canvas dimensions and available layers depend on the iPad model.
Professional illustrators and concept artists can use it for finished paintings as well as exploratory sketches. Its defining appeal is direct work on the image through pen input and gestures, with tools suited to drawing rather than a general desktop workspace. Layered file export also helps artwork move into other editing software.
