iPad Art

David Hockney is having an exhibit of his iPad art in Paris. The exhibit will feature several iPads mounted on the walls displaying his various sketches created in the app "Brushes". It's cool to see the iPad being used in more interesting ways and for more interesting purposes than just emailing, watching movies, and other entertainment like games, etc. Also, I think it's great to see an someone somewhat older adapting the iPad and using it in place of the older medium, the sketchbook. Hockney describes the iPad as being a great replacement for his sketchbook and that he enjoys the option of sending his pictures out immediately upon finishing them, I think the quality of the picture is also very interesting, since it is "painted" with his thumb, it is like a completely new technique and creates a new sort of style.
