iPad art - photo manipulation

photo manupulation  of watercolour study "notizie"- "news"

Based on "Creativity Workshop" : Beyond the Ordinary by artist Nicolas Simmons
 I've started to use the iPad  to manipulate photos of my watercolours . With "news"/ "notzie" I used  iPad's basic iPhoto App  to edit and create the digital image above.The next step will be to use this digital image and others to explore and generate ideas for new paintings .There is definately  a  lot of scope with this approach and a lot to learn. It's a brilliant design tool.

(I've downloaded several drawing apps to my iPad but haven't really explored them yet: maybe for a future post.)

Very interesting. It must help with color combinations too before putting expensive paints to paper.

David Hockney's exhibition "A Bigger Picture" made a lasting impression on me with his intergration of technology (iPad/ videos)with his art.

Great ideas for abstracting a subject for painting Jane as it incorporates all your original work too

hi jean we crossed post sorry i couldn't reply sooner... yes it's a great visual aid ...with lots of subtleties ...i need to play around more what i posted is very basic.

definately lots to learn from your own work with Nick's process " to stimulate new ways of thinking and seeing ".

Polly I love my sketch pad !... you don't need an iPad ... There are lots of alternative software ... Nick used Photoshop .
