ArtRage

Painting with digital oils, watercolours, pencils, and palette knives takes more attention than tapping a filter, and that is where ArtRage earns its place. It is a painting-focused art app for people who want to work with brush strokes and layered colour rather than simply adjust a photo. Its tools are known for simulating the feel of traditional materials, including paint interacting on a canvas. By our assessment, that makes ArtRage a satisfying option for sketching and painterly work, especially with a stylus, while it is less suited to quick image fixes or elaborate graphic design. The traditional-media approach gives the tools a clear purpose, but can feel more involved than a basic drawing app. A palette knife and paintbrush offer different ways to spread and mix colour across the digital canvas.
