OVERVIEW

How many times have you been drawing a portrait for hours only to realize that the nose or the eye is in the wrong place? You can use Da Vinci Eye to layout artwork before you begin or even check your work as you progress.

Having a hard time seeing where lights or darks go? Breakdown images into layers by color value. Then virtually project those layers on top of your image. You can see exactly where to place the darkest darks, mid-tones, and highlights.

LEARNING HOW TO DRAW?

We have lessons using our unique patent-pending learning method. You can also turn ANY photo into a step by step shading drawing lesson.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

Based on a tool that has been used by artists for centuries, this app is a digital version of a Camera Lucida.

You suspend your iPhone or iPad above or in front of your canvas with a stand, tall glass, or other objects easily found around your house.

When you look through your phone, you will see both the image and the canvas simultaneously. It's similar in functionality to an art projector or light box, but with the ability to do so much more.

You can draw on any surface, zoom in to draw micro details in your drawing, and you don't have to draw in the dark.

WILL THIS HELP ME LEARN HOW TO DRAW?

Using Da Vinci Eye, you will be training your eye to recognize proportions and draw with shading while training your hand to translate precise lines and strokes on paper. You’ll learn faster and more efficiently using our proven techniques compared to any other app.

AR MODE REQUIREMENTS

AR mode works best on new and high end devices. Your device must have a high quality camera, fast processor, and a fast enough GPU to handle rendering and updates.

AR & CLASSIC MODE

AR mode anchors your image to an object in the real world. This lets you move your canvas or phone, and the drawing and projected image will move back into place.

Classic mode is like a normal art projector, where if you move your phone or canvas, the drawing will no longer be aligned.

AR mode is especially useful for drawing or painting on an easel. However, in most cases, Classic mode will achieve the same result.

Ratings and reviews

Best projector app so far. I've used many, and the better ones require a paid subscription. The selling point for me is the anchor. I am always knocking my phone and messing up the alignments on my projector, and the anchor helps keep the picture in place. Forget the ratings that mention a learning curve: you get that with any projector app. For now, I'm thoroughly impressed with this app!

I absolutely love this app! Once I got past the initial awkwardness of seeing my pencil through a screen and figuring out all the features I started having a lot of fun. It saves you a lot of time and you can draw anything you want with excellent results! I had some trouble focusing the camera and using the recording feature but after sending a quick email, the staff was right there with the right solutions. Definitely worth the money!

I have an excellent natural free hand but this app is a mind blowing experience. 🤯 I'm am a huge fan in minutes now. Making my self a a quick sketch just got 100 times easier! It does not take away from the actual working of your peice but instead assists in getting proportions spot on. I was a skeptic to start, but just wow. It's so fun and easy, great if you want something quick to get to painting. This would be great for beginners to start training their hand. So impressed so far.
