The Digital Art tag on CellularNews collects tutorials and guides focused on using creative applications on mobile devices, specifically the popular drawing app Procreate. This content is for anyone who uses their phone or tablet for digital illustration, design, or photo editing, and needs practical, step-by-step instructions to master their tools.

The articles here solve two main kinds of problems. The first group deals with core drawing and editing techniques: you will learn how to erase, copy a color, mirror a drawing, curve text, and make a perfect circle. Other guides show you how to move objects, change colors, use the eyedropper, pick colors, merge layers, and make a layer transparent. The second group focuses on more advanced tasks like filling in shapes, inverting colors, adding grids, coloring inside the lines, using 3D models, and performing color drops. You can also find help with shading, mixing colors, using the lasso tool, ungrouping layers, and understanding DPI settings.

Beyond the basics, the tag covers brush creation, adding reference photos, changing line colors, flipping layers, using alpha lock, and the clone tool. Whether you are a beginner trying to get new brushes or a more experienced user looking to shade and mix color effectively, these articles provide direct answers to common Procreate problems. The focus is always on helping you perform a specific action on your phone or tablet, from making an outline brush to mastering layer management.
