iPod Art

When I received my iPod Touch a few years ago, I started experimenting with various free apps to create art.

I like to use drawing, painting, stenciling and stamping apps. I keep each phase of the piece as a separate layer by simply saving it as a photo on my device. Then I import that photo into the next app and apply another layer.

Creating digital art is very satisfying because it is so flexible. I also have the extra advantage of easily "undoing" something that I dislike and can go back a step.

Creating art on my iPod or IPad reminds me of fingerpainting when I was a child! There is such freedom in it. I can just keep layering and then erasing over and over until I like the finished product.

There are all kinds of apps for your gadget that are free. Here are a few that I have used:

Draw
Labelbox
iDoodleit
DoodleBuddy
Stencils
MyPaint Free

These digital creations can be printed as well and provide a foundation for other artistic endeavors.

Happy digital crafting!
