Swooning Over: The Artist’s Touch App

I’m pretty head over heels with The Artist’s Touch App.

I’ve always wanted to turn some of my photos into paintings but just haven’t taken the steps to give it a try.  So when I tried this iPhone App recently, I was hooked.  Its a simple yet powerful app that allows you to paint a picture out of a photo.

I’ve been fully smitten with it over the last few days, trying out what photos work best, exploring how it looks using big brush strokes vs small and making demos of it for the Swan Dive class (there is still room in the class for you to join us if you’d like).  I’m gathering up all sorts of options to inspire the participants to get creative with their photos in post-production.  Like with the program Pixlr that I shared about a few weeks ago, there are some apps or programs that I’m so head over heels with…I can’t just save them to share during the class but have to share here too.

Here’s some of the fun I’ve been having with The Artist’s Touch recently.

Its such a fun App a you simply start by creating big brush strokes and then slowly make the strokes smaller to show the details.  You can keep big brush strokes in some areas and make others really presice.

Here’s an example of one of the images I’ve been playing around with and the steps of using small and bigger brush strokes!
