The game also includes the function of the 3DS Camera, to take images for reference while drawing. Art can be posted onto Miiverse.

Images unlocked through in-game events feature an optional step-by-step guide and multiple templates. All tools and colors are available for use. The player can select a custom background color, use any unlocked in-game background image, or use an image from the 3DS Camera.
Quick Sketch
The game features a total of 14 unlockable mini-lessons, called "Quick Sketches" in-game. These allow the player to draw simple inages using a limited selection of tools and colors.
