Artista Sketch - Mac Info


Artista Sketch converts your photo into a sketch with wispy lines and delicate shading to achieve a light but fine rendered drawing.

In contrast to most digital art media, Artista Sketch comes very close to hand-drawn artwork seen only before in sketches created by human artists. Getting a similar result using traditional pencils would require expert training or extensive manipulation using an image editing application. No need to handle a pencil to feel like an artist. The only thing you need to create your original artwork is the appreciation … we will take care of the rest.
