Here’s one of the latest examples I’ve seen of amazing art being produced on the iPad. It’s a portrait of live model – done by David Kassan with the Brushes app.
David’s work on this portrait took three hours and it was live streamed as he did it. Great stuff.
I love cityscape images – and I think this is a gorgeous one of Kuala Lumpur. Here’s a little background on it from the artist, azrolkassim:
not 1 of my best effort so far with SBM but im now a street artist.. haha.. enjoying the evening with a paint just makes my day. i was chilling at titawangsa while witnessing the beautiful urban scene. I love Kuala Lumpur. So guys, come n visit KL.
I watched a few videos that showcased Rana Sobhany, the World’s First iPad DJ – and her efforts at iPadDevCamp. The great portrait of her in action shown above was – fittingly – done on an iPad, by David Newman.
David is obviously finding the iPad a pretty great tool for his portraits work.
What a powerful image. Here’s a little more about it, straight from our friend David Scott Leibowitz:
While doing research for my upcoming book on iPhone / iPad Art, I’ve been reading a lot of art history books. For some reason the Cubists stuck in my head like a song that you hum all day. The work for the next few days all had a Cubist flavor, but here’s my clear favorite, "The Cracked Old Man". My work with the iPad has taken on an abstract tone of late, as I have found the larger surface more suited to playing with paint and brushes than the iPhone.

What a great image. I think the amazing power of the iPad combined with its beyond-simple interface is enough to inspire child-like wonder in many of us. I also love the story behind the image:
… could be called ‘discovering iPad’, it’s the first illustration I made on my iPad using Autodesk Sketchbook Pro, made the day after I received it. It was inspired by the first feeling I had when I hold it for the first time : I felt like a child discovering his new toy !
