Sketchbook Express or Pro

Apple now has the App Store for your Mac. I really like this new option. Saves you from having to find various applications on the web. You can just download straight from the App Store. It's very similar to iTunes or the store on an iPhone/iPod/iPad. Pretty cool. I got this cool app called Sketchbook Express. It's the free version of Sketchbook Pro. I hooked up my Wacom tablet and was able to do a sketch pretty quickly. Normally, if you try to do this in Photoshop...or another application like it...you don't get a realistic feel, like pressure point of the pen...stuff like that. This is almost like sketching on paper. Almost. :)

Here's a sketch I did using the app and my Wacom. I like this app. For anyone who likes to sketch...check this app out.
