You can draw on an iPad with an Apple Pencil on the Procreate app, which you can use to sketch, paint, and illustrate.

New to this app? Then read our Procreate review and our guide to the best iPads for drawing to get up and running.

In Procreate and other apps, different elements of your drawing can be stacked on top of one another. So, for example, you can work on the background of your picture without altering the foreground.
