01 · Line
It starts with the hand.
Pressure, tilt, speed, taper, and stabilisation work together so a stroke can enter softly and leave cleanly without losing your intent.
Android beta in development
A line you can
trust.
From the first touch to the final lift, your hand stays in the line.
Draw, build, and finish in one quiet studio.
Every mark begins with the artist.
Drawn in Artlia
Works
The bar is set
on paper.
Artlia’s strokes and colour are tuned against watercolour and copic originals by PAULIA. Digital convenience should not cost the richness of paper.

The experience
Tools should follow
the work.
The difference is not the length of a feature list. It appears in how a line lands, how colour layers, and how the work holds together to the finish.
02 · Colour
Colour that behaves like material.
An established pigment-mixing model lets transitions move toward subtractive, paint-like behaviour instead of following one straight RGB blend.

One quiet workspace
Keep the work
moving.
Draw, build, develop, and finish without breaking the creative flow or flattening the work between separate tools.
Paint
Brushes respond to pressure, tilt, and speed, with stabilisation, taper, smudge, and imported brushes.
Build
Layers, masks, selections, blend modes, clipping, and non-destructive adjustments keep the source editable.
Finish
Shape colour, tone, texture, paper character, and output from the same document.
The work stays yours—and stays editable.

Proof, not promises
Show the result.
State the conditions.
Physical language only matters when the result can be reproduced and the limits remain visible.
For product teams →Current engine output
The stroke motion and the mixing comparison come from the current drawing engine, not hand-built diagrams. Paper originals are the standard we tune toward, and are always labelled as such.
Reproducible comparison
Ground, brush colour, opacity, pressure path, and geometry are held constant while behaviour checks cover difficult inputs.
Limits included
Pigment and paper behaviour are calibrated creative models—not measurements of one physical paint sample or sheet of paper.
Questions
Clear answers.
When can I try it?
The first beta is planned for Android. Join the waitlist and you will receive one email when it is ready.
Were the artworks on this page made in Artlia?
The front piece in the hero was drawn in Artlia. The other originals are paper works in watercolour and copic by PAULIA, shown as the standard Artlia’s strokes and colour are tuned toward.
Is Artlia only a painting app?
Painting is the centre. Artlia is also evolving toward supported image and RAW development, finishing, and print-oriented workflows.
What is your stance on generative AI?
Artlia currently includes no generative-image features. Your artwork is not collected or used to train models; every mark remains yours.
Can I bring my own brushes?
Photoshop .abr import already works, and Artlia has a portable .liabrush format with author and licence metadata.
Is the pigment model physically exact?
No. It is a calibrated creative approximation grounded in established theory—not a measurement of one physical paint mixture.
