hardware: iPad and stylus
software: Apple Brushes app
output machine: inkjet printer

The iPad Drawing prints are created via a touchscreen application (Brushes) from a file exported from Hockney’s iPad as an editable image file to the studio computer. From there we enlarge using image editing software plus a proprietary process to enlarge them further for our print specifications which is then output to an eight color large format printer. No pixellation occurs because the Brushes software creates vector files.
