I am a wannabe painter. I dabble. That said, we bought hubby two pieces of art, created entirely on a computer, for his birthday last year. Here he is with the artist. He loves trains!I've been trying to do one drawing a week, at least, whilst visiting my client. Usually, pastels and/or colouring pencils.
Yesterday, he was sleepy, so I went into the other room to let him rest. I ended up having a nap, too! What to post for PPF?

I discovered this App (Brushstroke), now that we've bought our SIL's old iPad. It's fun trying to be creative. I'm not totally happy with my efforts, I will play at this. (Mind you the iPad is supposed to be hubby' computer!)
It is still creativity! They are not expensive, most apps run around $3 or so. It's a wonderful way to support programmers. Well worth the cost. There are some freebies out there, but that doesn't seem right to me.

We also have a couple of simple drawing programs for the grandkids (Doodle Fun, Doodle Buddy), which we used during our week-long trip to Vancouver. It is not for every day, but for those moments, when you need a quiet project!This one is from an iPad photo, using Tunes, which the app converts. The photos from the iPad app aren't great, I am used to my good camera, but they can easily be converted to a cartoon! Jofee loves this app!

I think this was a group effort, but I cannot remember!
