You can't hire an art professor to show up at your lunch break or after dinner. You might not be able to drag an easel onto the bus with you, throw a canvas into your purse or store a set of colored pencils in your briefcase. But with Art Academy: Lessons for Everyone, your own personal art tutor is at your beck and call, and a fully stocked studio is always at your fingertips on your Nintendo 3DS. Transform your stylus into a paintbrush, re-imagine your touch screen as a canvas and bring out your inner Picasso as you enhance your art skills and create masterpieces that come to life in 3D.

Whether you're new to the world of watercolors or already accustomed to colored pencils, you can begin honing your artistic talent at just the right level with step-by-step guidance from more than 30 different Introductory and Advanced lessons. Rely on the Art Academy expert, Vince, to walk you through a variety of different real-life art techniques, from sketching with pencils to mixing paints. When you've mastered a method, test out your newfound skills in Free Art mode, where you can stretch your imagination to the limit and create anything you like using standard pencils, colored pencils, paints and pastels. Transform photos taken from your Nintendo 3DS Camera into stunning artwork, or draw inspiration from more than 50 motifs, including 3D subjects with a range of lighting options. When your work's complete, show your friends and family what you've achieved via SpotPass. Do you have your own artistic pearls of wisdom to share? Spread your ideas by creating your own lessons that you can send to other artists on your Friends List. When you enroll in the Art Academy, you're well on your way to becoming a top-class artist.
