About this app

Developer Description

Freely draw beautiful zen art.

Zen Brush 3 is a drawing app focused on the strong yet beautiful feel of the East Asian ink brush which can be used to perform calligraphy, ink painting and more.

The drawing system that brings to life a feeling of silky fluent and delicate painting now allows an even wider range of expression thanks to the addition of "water" and "color". Providing a new simple and intuitive user interface, this app is designed to be optimal for performing Zen art.

Simply start the app and you are immediately ready to draw. Anyone, anywhere, can create superb Zen art with this app’s uniquely rich expressiveness. You can also easily share and edit your calligraphy and images with other apps using the Export functionality. Skillfully use the rich background style templates to create and share atmospheric artwork.


- The drawing system simulates a 3D model of an East Asian ink brush to enable varied and natural styles of brush handling.
- The adjustable amount of water makes it possible to create expressions ranging from powerful edge effects to "nijimi" (bleeding) and "bokashi" (blurring) where colors mix.
- You can also enjoy creating colored-ink paintings as well as watercolor paintings by making use of 30 selected traditional Japanese colors.
- The layer functionality allows more flexible editing.
- Import photos to add text to them or use them as background images for tracing.

Wonderful. This app is so realistic and so much fun! Worth every penny. The interface is intuitive and easy to use. I have used genuine Chinese and Japanese paper, brushes and ink in the past. This app feels like the real thing. Truly a great app to practise and create Japanese and Chinese style art. You will also save a fortune on paper and ink supplies! Plus, no mess to cleanup! Very pleased!

Hi, developer! Congratulations! I've been using the app on a Samsung S6 lite tablet. The ink experience is nice at lower resolutions. The water simulation and eraser are really impressive. But the strokes feel a little bit heavier at higher resolutions. There is also an issue with pen tilting recognition. Other apps like Infinite Painter, or super display recognize it very well. So I think it is an isolated issue within this app. Could you please help me? Thank you very much!

It's an okay time wasting art app, but reminds me of a 'wannabe' beginning copycat coding experience. A glorified version of Microsoft Paint? It is really super annoying how the stylus input 'lags' as bad as it does with this app! It is horribly 'retarded' as what you draw on the display LAGS behind your stylus. It is the fault of the app because several other art apps don't do this (e.g., Procreate, Infinite Painter, Adobe EVERYTHING...); it's not my hardware > SSG Tab 7+

Slow, and now additive brush strokes have gone (gets darker the more you paint over it) so it feels just like a sluggish standard generic paint app zenbrush 2 was one the best paint/sketch apps available this version is not. Such a shame
