Brushes some more.
It really does please me just how much like wet acrylics this
application feels. I know that I'm just rubbing my finger on the glass
surface of the phone, but I can almost feel the liquid smear on the
illustration board.
Brushes or ArtRage (which I talked about in a post about a year ago)
or any of the "natural media" simulation programs can really help
someone cultivate their artistic skillset. If you've never painted,
picking one of these up (ArtRage starter edition is free for both mac
and PC at http:\\www.ambientdesign.com, and brushes for the iPhone is
on sale at the app store for a while for 99 cents I think) would be a
great way to try it out without having to invest in paint, canvas,
cleaners, etc. Plus, there's no mess to clean up, and no brightly
colored flecks on your fingers that no matter how hard you scrub just
won't go away!
Give it a try. And if you do, let me know! I'd love to see what you do.
