iPhone Finger Painting

Once upon a time, I was addicted to Facebook Graffiti. Really and truly - while abroad in Australia, there were nights I almost didn't make it out because I was hard at work on my latest e-masterpiece. Graffiti quickly spun out of control, as clever users learned tricks to make their digital art as realistic as a photograph. I simply couldn't keep up.

That old familiar itch in the fingertips returned when I saw The New Yorker's cover at the end of May, drawn entirely on an iPhone using the Brushes application. Their website shows Jorge Colombo's weekly drawings of NYC locales (and yes, you can view his entire artistic process). Now I just gotta get one of those fancy phones too.
