Brushstroke

When taking a photographic reference photo and translating this to a real oil painting, judging the colours, simplifying the contours, adjusting shades and intensity can be time consuming as you can be uncertain how far to push and adjust the variables. This program allows you to get it perfect in minutes. You know exactly where to go and how to get there in the painting process as the program creates the perfect translated reference photo.

Forget cheesey Instagram filters and boring old colour tools, Brushstroke makes a far more elegant impact. So easy to use, and simple to experiment, yet the results are truely amazing. Obviously some very clever things happening under the hood to convert an otherwise dull photo into a masterpiece oil painting or watercolour. Worth every penny.

Just keep going back to it; best painting photo app in the appverse.

Very easy to use. The app automatically paints the pictures. (It's fast.) There are dozens of basic presets, and settings for fine tuning. Many of the presets are only suitable for certain types of images, however. After playing with it you will probably settle on three or four favorites. But as it is so fast in rendering the pictures it doesn't take too long to look at all the basic options. The pictures are basically oil paintings, there is a "washed" setting, but Waterlogue is better if you want watercolor-style paintings. And if you want more control over the strokes, Clever Painter is great option.

Just downloaded this app. Support within the App Store sent me to a website that was useless. I have an iPad Pro…little over a year old. No useful directions whatsoever. You have to pay $5.99 to access. Not a big deal. Unless, you need directions.. Within the app, it says upload to the app. No option for that. Upload from an album. No option for that, either. If you open the app, you will have to scroll forever if you have an older photo or if, like me, you utilize your camera on a daily basis. Went to website and it basically said the same thing. Easily upload from albums or favorites. Nope. Literally start at the last pic and you have to scroll until you find the photo. Will gladly update if I actually find this app to be useful before deleting.

I downloaded the “free” app, but it doesn’t do anything except offer the full version for a price. I basically downloaded the paywall. No trial. No preview. No limited functionality until you upgrade. No nothing.

I’ve been using this app for years to reimagine certain images to help me create new works of art on paper (or sometimes on ProCreate). But regardless of how you use it, it’s a phenomenal app. It always has been. It was way ahead of its time and has stood the test of time. I cannot recommend an app more. These are good people who made this.

I love this app. I have used it for years to tweak photos for calendars and other photo gifts. I think it is a great way to create personal art into canvass and tile hangings

A beautiful interface, a stunning effect maker! Just one of the greats!

Love this app - more than I can say - does sooo much
