Art on the iPhone
After reading that David Hockney (my hero!) is creating pictures on his iPhone, I naturally had to try it, too. On the right is a photo of one of his creations.
His iPhone even has its own little easel!!
He has also 'painted' many images on his computer and is exhibiting them at a London venue. The show is entitled 'Drawing in a printing machine'. I wish I could see it. He is always open-minded and innovative:
Above left is my first attempt to paint on the iPhone. I have to remember that less is more!!!
Always learning from the master . .

What, water color?
What did I do during all those weeks?
I created 35 different images on 8x8" boards; most of them are color inkjet on canvas and then mounted on boards and often hand embellished.
They are very affordable, only $48.
This last week I've been returning to watercolor. It's been at least 15 years since I worked in this medium and I am completely out of practice. And of course my expectations and point of view has changed. I'm not interested in traditional watercolor techniques and would like the paintings to reflect my unique style. Not easy!
Here is the pitiful result:
I hope to get better, with practice. If so, I will post the images here.
On top, just for fun, is a digital image. Photoshop is a blast!

Another great Warhol quote
'I am a deeply superficial person.'
Read "The philosophy of Andy Warhol". Funny, outrageous and insightful.
Today's quote
An artist is someone who produces things that people don't need to have but that (s)he-for some reason-thinks it would be a good idea to give them. Andy Warhol
