Bright Abstract iPhone 4 size wallpaper

I love the Sketch Mee app - for it's versatility and the high res output, so I just bought Paint Mee. A new app means revisiting completed artwork whilst I get to know the new effects.
App addict that I am I also bought Kyoobik today too.
Here are a few of the initial results of my experimentation, resized to 960 x 640 for the newer iPhone screen.

iPhone wallpaper - abstract warmth

P2128

I've just altered my phone wallpaper, something warm and cheerful to try to coax the Spring to return...and thought I'd share.

Fluid motion, artista oil and camera+

Etsy - PDF Get Found workbook

Although created to be used during the recent symposium, there are some interesting and useful pointers in there too.

It's worth signing up for the Etsy Success mailings if you've not already done so...

Percolated Spin Art

P2115

I've been experimenting with Spin Art and Percolator. The updates to Percolator have made it so much more versatile than it was in the beginning and it's worth checking out not just for it's strong graphic quality but also as a means of adding texture to your digital art.

I'm terribly forgetful when it comes to resizing and watermarking images before upload, but these two apps make it much easier;

iWatermark
iResize - this lets you change the dpi too, and do batch edits. Can't believe I only just found it... I need to try to spend more time at iPA...

Much to my surprise I've ended up with a series of Percolated spin art. If you're curious to see the series so far in it's raw state - sign up for my newsletter and I'll send you the password to my online sketchbook.
(What I need to do is add it to the confirmation email you get when you sign up - that way you don't have to wait for me to check my mailing list. Just email me if I'm being tardy...it's a spoon shortage rather than a lack of interest.)

Happy Sunday (or whatever day you're reading this.)
