For artists on the go, it's increasingly important to be able to capture ideas, draw quickly to show a client ideas, demonstrate a method, or annotate an image. For some, drawing app Sketchable has become the ideal application for achieving such tasks. It works well on both a Microsoft Surface Pro and the Wacom Companion, and it's lightweight, easy to use, extremely fast, and responsive. It autosaves your work so you can pick up where you left off.
Review: Sketchable
Doodle Power! Sketchable is a simple yet powerful program for quick sketching and drawing.
Our Verdict
A great little on-the-go tool for artists to sketch with. The interface is super easy to get to grips with and well thought out, plus it's free!
