Incredible Blending

Try Inspire Pro and you will quickly see that it is a painting app like no other! While the strokes of a wet brush look amazing on their own, the breathtaking blending effects of a dry brush will absolutely stun you. Use a tiny bit of pressure to add a subtle blur to your artwork or crank the pressure all the way up to actually mix existing colors on the canvas together to create new ones!
Sorcery™ Painting Engine

Our new proprietary painting engine Sorcery™, based on OpenGL ES 2.0, takes full advantage of the GPU to render brush strokes with brilliant 64-bit color, laser-sharp sub-pixel precision and incredibly fast speed.
Silky Smooth 60 FPS

While most other painting and drawing apps struggle to keep up with even 30 FPS, Inspire Pro's new Sorcery™ engine rips through brush strokes at a blistering 60 FPS and then asks for more.
Beautiful Gallery

Show off all of your saved paintings in a beautiful, yet functional gallery. You can easily name each of your paintings, save them to your Photos with a single tap or quickly browse through them by thumbnail, 25 at a time.
Brush Selection

There are 50 high quality brushes to choose from, divided into 5 sets: Oil Paint, Airbrushes, Basic Shapes, Graphite Pencils and Wax Crayons. Every brush can be used as a wet brush, dry brush or eraser. The oil paint brushes are rendered with individual bristles that act independently of each other. The airbrushes have been carefully crafted for adding very subtle layers of color. The pencils and crayons are great for sketching and adding texture.
Brush Size and Rotation

The size and rotation of each brush can be adjusted with pin-point accuracy using the large preview of the Brush menu. Inspire Pro automatically remembers the set size and rotation for each type of brush and for each brush mode individually, allowing you to pick up where you left off after switching to a new brush quickly and easily.
Deep Brush Stroke Customization

Customize each brush stroke exactly how you want with the new Stroke menu. There are 17 different settings across 5 categories. Whether you are setting the pressure, the amount of paint, the scatter percentage or the amount of taper a brush stroke is applied with, Inspire Pro gives you full control of how brush strokes will look and feel on the canvas.
Pick a Color, any Color

Choose any color you can dream of from the intuitive Color menu. Translucent colors can be selected for a wide range of effects with different kinds of brushes. Your latest colors are saved automatically in a palette as you paint and you can also save your favorite colors to another palette with drag and drop.
Love it? Share it!

What good is an awesome painting if you can't share it with your family and friends? Inspire Pro has many different sharing options available in the Export menu. You can email a painting, print it, or even copy it so that you can paste it into another app. You can also upload a painting to Facebook, Twitter or Flickr in no time.
Options Galore

The UI of Inspire Pro can be fully customized from the Options menu to suit your painting style. You can choose a painting offset so that brush strokes appear above your finger instead of right underneath. You can disable or hide the hotspots around the edge of the screen. You can also enable or disable the fast eye dropper, painting stab strokes with taps or being able to zoom in on the canvas using a double tap gesture.
