Excellent App for Sumi-e
I have been practicing Sumi-e since I studied under my teacher Ami Wada in the San Francisco Bay Area. Since getting my first iPad I have tried many different Apps to continue my practice without the actual charcoal ink, rice paper, and brushes. Of course there is nothing like using the real material to practice Sumi-e, but if you live in a country as I do now, where it is difficult to get Sumi-e supplies and material this App is a great alternative for people who like to practice their Sumi-e and get inspired to find a Sumi-e teacher to learn from using the real material.
I like to add that I have used Zen Brush since it came out several years ago and it is a great App. But Zen Brush 2 is excellent.
I would like to ask PSOFT to add the following colours in a future upgrade: Yellow, Blue, and Green. The yellow comes in handy when one want to practice painting carp. The blue comes in handy when one want to practice painting certain types birds. And the green comes in handy for children who want to practice Sumi-e with their parents.
To the developers of this excellent APP. Thank you and keep up the great work.
Sincerely,
Arjuna
