Store description excerpt
Line Lift is real watercolor on your phone. Not a filter, not a brush texture, a living simulation of pigment and water: washes stay wet, colors bleed into each other, blooms and backruns spread while you watch, dry-brush strokes catch on the paper's tooth. Wet the whole sheet first and paint into it, and the color creeps and feathers the way it does on real cotton paper. Every serious art app assumes a tablet and a stylus. Line Lift is built for fingers, for the sofa, the café, the commute. The studio works the way a real one does: dip a pan of pigment, rinse the brush in the water bowl, dab it on the towel, mix two pigments in the tray. On iPad there's room to spread out, and Apple Pencil pressure and rotation are supported — but never required. And it starts on paper, if you want it to. Draw with real ink on real paper, point the camera at it, and Line Lift lifts your linework off the page, so you can lay watercolor under your own drawing without ever losing it. Or skip the paper and start on a blank sheet. Paint with sound on. Every stroke is synthesized in real time, the wet drag of a loaded brush, the dry whisper of a thirsty one. What's in the studio: • A wet watercolor engine with blooms, backruns, stacking washes and true drying • Wet-the-sheet mode: soak the whole page and paint into the standing water • A broad hake for laying washes, and a sponge for skies, clouds and lifted texture • Washi tape and a craft knife: mask an edge, cut a shape, peel back to crisp paper • The fineliner and the reservoir pen, a dip pen with a real, finite ink load • Ink lift from camera, scanner or imported photos • Reference photos to trace over on the lightboard, or keep beside your work • Papers with real tooth • A sketchbook home: your work lives in notebooks you flip through, and every painting session saves a new version — the original is never touched • Time-lapse of your painting as it comes together • iCloud backup of your sketchbook • Full export and undo Everything in this version is free. Your artwork stays on your device and in your own iCloud, analytics are anonymous, and there are no ads and no account.
