About this course:

Join us for an overview of 3 iPad drawing apps you can use in your daily professional lives: Morpholio Trace, Procreate, and Sketchup for iPad. Our focus will be on three areas of professional practice where hand drawing remains relevant: 1) freehand sketching and design, 2) drafting and design development, and 3) perspective rendering of interior architecture. The seminar will briefly touch on all three apps, then focus on the pros and cons of the two most generally applicable: Morpholio Trace and Procreate.
