Some skill in photoshop and illustrator can take you a long way. OpenGL is mostly for developing 3D games.

I'd definitely suggest you start with the Build a Simple iPhone App adventure here on Treehouse. You get to build a really simple Crystal Ball app, and you'll learn how to implement graphics into your views as well as how to animate graphics. ...not to mention, it's a really great introduction to Xcode and iOS development in general!
Best of luck!

Courses Plus Student 1,847 PointsI finished the build a simple app project but how would I design 3D or 2D graphics and use that in my app. Would I need to learn web design.
