Purepaint Kids (£2.99, also available via Android) turns your screen into a canvas. It offers only five colours (the three primaries, plus black and white) and there are no tools to select – you just get stuck in as if you were finger painting. Saskia painted some test pictures and saved them to the app’s gallery. “I think this app works best with your finger,” she says (she had also tried it with an Apple Pencil). Colours have to be mixed directly on the paper as there is no palette; I would find this annoying but Saskia adapted quickly. “I like being able to blend the colours myself,” she says. The app apes the experience of painting as far as possible and the painted line responds to pressure, so a delicate lemon wash can be beefed up into a thick egg-yolk impasto. Great for young children and mess-averse parents.

Malachy, who is studying GCSE Art, took a look at Morpholio Trace, a CAD sketch app that is free to download with subscription options (up to £17.99 per year). A week’s free trial gives you access to premium subscription tools and Malachy was particularly impressed with the app’s stencils. “I liked being able to pull in aerial photo maps from anywhere in the world and draw and stencil over them to make my own layered collages,” he says. While Malachy used this app to make art it feels more like a go-to tool for aspiring architecture students. For £17.99 per year you can access scale rulers, protractors, perspective tools, stencils and maps, and save as many projects as you like.
