Surprise your friends by mastering art effortlessly. Unleash your creative potential.

Artist's Eye is a practical tool that assists you in drawing or painting with traditional tools on paper or canvas.

Select a reference image (such as a photo) and observe your work in progress through your phone or tablet's camera.

The reference image appears semi-transparent over your drawing, guiding your outline—similar to the camera lucida technique used for centuries (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camera_lucida).

For optimal use, mount your phone on a stable stand to keep it steady and free both hands.

This method is not cheating—it's an innovative approach to practice and learning.

Tip: On newer Samsung and LG models without a menu button, access the menu by long-pressing the task-switch button.
