- Krita is a professional drawing app, created by digital artists who wanted to make their tools available to everyone. As such, this app is a great choice even if you are just starting to master the skills of digital sketching. Plus, the official website offers a bunch of free learning resources.
This Mac drawing software holds all the aces when it comes to versatility. Sketch can be used to create professional artwork, draw and design websites and so much more. Sketch is a vector-based application with several features such as a toolbar, canvas, editable shapes and so much more. I use Sketch on an iMac. But I'm thinking about buying a MacBook Air for occasional use with Sketch. Can anyone comment on how well Sketch performs on a MacBook Air with 13-inch screen, 1440 by 900 screen resolution and 1.6GHz processor? I know a MacBook Pro would be better, but would like to know about experiences running Sketch on a MacBook Pro.
Well,
Drawing and sketching apps use onscreen tools, so there is no getting around that.

Generally, the larger the tablet drawing area the more more it feels like you are drawing on paper to the screen as the active drawing area gets closer to the size of your computer's screen, the more freely your hand can move around on the tablet area.
You ou can find used Wacom tablets for sale on eBay, but you need to do some homwework and research to make sure the year and model of older Wacom Tablet will work on your Mac with Yosemite installled.
I might be best just to purchase as new
