« How to Draw is a good
app for learning basic skills, and is free for iOS
and Android.
Its Step by Step
section features the main drawing lessons, each of which is based on
copying simple lines that make up a cartoonish drawing of an object
like a turtle or a coffee mug. The app shows each line in turn, then
you draw on the screen with a finger to copy it. More guide lines
appear, until the image is complete.
The app has tools
to add color to the image, or it can stay as a pencil-like sketch.
The app is aimed
more at children, given the sample images and its Coloring section,
which looks a lot like a digital coloring book. It starts with a
limited number of sample images; more images require an in-app
payment. Access to all of them costs $5.99 for the iOS edition »
