iPhone as canvas


I think I've written about Brushes, one of the amazing 'paint' applications available for the iPhone. The Flickr feed is outstanding if you haven't seen it.

The UK's Daily Mail did an article on David Hockney, one of the UK's outstanding artist. Now in his 70s, he has taken to the iPhone like a duck to water. He's given it a little easel and 'paints.'

Core to Apple's success has been the artist. It's great to see that enthusiasm channeled to the iPhone.

My friends in NYC must visit the Jack Shainman gallery in West Chelsea. I have never seen such amazing sculpture. He uses embroidery, lace, macrame, buttons and other sewing crafts to create these Sound Suits. Now I will have to follow his work. Those in San Francisco, it's heading to the MoMA in March. You must see it for yourself.

Fat cars


I love this sculpture by Erwin Wurm. I could make all sorts of comments but I'll simply say – the car matches many of its occupants.

Chaney-Trail-Sunset



This is an iPhone 'painting' using an application called Brushes. Isn't this incredible?!?
The artist is Steve Kardos and he has posted an array of work using different iPhone drawing programs. 
This one is titled 'Chaney Trail Sunset'

I love the color and the texture is flawless. Just another amazing application for the iPhone.
