Unleash your inner artist! Transform your drawings and paintings with Artist's Eye, the innovative app that lets you trace images using a real pen or pencil.
Simply choose a model image (like a photo), and as you draw, watch your progress through your phone or tablet's camera. The model image will appear semi-transparent, guiding your 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 and free up both hands. This isn't cheating; it's a 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 menu button often access the menu via a long press of the task switching button.
