my new favourite iPad app

Introducing my new favourite iPad app: Sketchbook Pro. This app has become my addiction! it's incredible for quick sketches and works almost like Adobe Photoshop for complete beginners. I've used it mainly to draw up quick designs, either from inspiration, or from imagination. It's available from the iTunes App Store for $4.99, and is any Creative's dream! 


A couple of my designs


Waaaay too much fun!
