A must have for any artist

This amazing App allows a good artist to become a great artist, and someone who is not an artist to produce passably good renderings of images or even portraits. The concept is not new, camera lucidas have been used, usually secretly, by artists for hundreds of years. This App takes the best elements of that ancient concept and turbo-charges it. If you can trace, you can draw, its that simple. This is sure to be a "must have" in any serious artists atelier, and getting the latest iPad (as I did) just to run this one App is not overkill, its that good and well worth it. Using Apples adapter/charger and a VGA cable attached to another monitor allows paintings of virtually any size to be made, subject to the iPad cameras resolution, which is likely adequate for anything less than monumental murals. I set mine up using a French easel in my studio and used my large studio easel to support a small 15" monitor. It works brilliantly, and with the remote keyboard support, makes doing details a snap. Version 8 has new many features, including the aforementioned Bluetooth support for keyboards and a very neat "Tims Vermeer" type mirror edge control which allows very easy comparisons; invaluable for matching colours or tonality. Simply the best App for serious painters and visual artists, and crosses that murky barrier between the digital and the physical in a very elegant package.
