Doodles are allowed to be imperfect. Spirals, cups, snails, and margin flowers count.
When you want a finished piece from a five-minute doodle, sketch it in DrawingPics and let the right panel flesh it out while you draw — no prompt-only waiting loop.
DrawingPics is a native Mac app for Apple Silicon (M1–M4, macOS 13+). It runs 100% offline after setup — pay once, no subscription. Intel Macs and Windows are not supported.

Do I need a drawing tablet?
Trackpad or mouse on a Mac is fine for rough doodles. Precision hardware is optional.
