Zen Brush 3

Zen Brush 3 simulates East Asian ink-brush drawing with water, color and layered composition tools.

Our take

Choose for calligraphy-inspired drawing and textured ink experiments.

Water amount, drying and paper templates support styles different from a conventional opaque digital pen.

Keep in mind: The simulation is not a physical brush, undo is limited to five levels, and maximum canvas sizes depend on device capability.

What you can do

  • Adjust thickness, water and tone
  • Work with layers and imported photos
  • Choose paper backgrounds
