Paper by FiftyThree is a drawing app developed for the iPad. It's a creative illustration tool that lets users draw and store their masterpieces in categorical notebooks that look like the popular Moleskine.
The whole app is created to portray a feeling of drawing and writing on paper. Users are able to choose from a variety of different drawing supplies to create compelling images. People can draw, write, paint and sketch with the optional tools that comes with the app. Drawings are stored in a multi-book portfolio, which can also be styled and designed by users.
There's an option to 'rewind' your paintings if you've encountered a mistake. Users can also take a photo of something and attempt to imitate the drawing. If the work is outstanding, there's an option to share it on Tumblr, Facebook and Twitter.
