Using a camera and cellphone to make art easier!



The next blog will be one that may help you to get more out of your cellphone if you have not yet explored its possibilities for use with drawing and painting. Of course, before we had the burden of being glued to our cellphones, we took out our cumbersome SLRs or digital cameras to try and see how to better our efforts. That was all before the Big Boys (Canon, Nikon, Panasonic and friends) brought out the small compact happy-snappy cameras. Yes, and even before the makers of phones thought about inserting a camera into a...cellphone. Now it's all old stuff.

It would be hard, I imagine, to buy a cellphone without a camera. Even if you don't want to use if to take yet more selfies.


Personally I think that Leonardo da Vinci would have been one of the first of his generation to get a smartphone (perhaps he'd just been paid for painting a moody looking gal, with a bit of a smirk on her face and with her hands folded so he'd be able to afford the type of apparatus that came with a fruity logo with a bite out of it) as he was always looking at intriguing ways of producing better (and quicker?) work. So just follow in his virtual footsteps.

You don't need a fancy phone if you haven't got a camera but you do need a SMARTPHONE that takes pictures.

 

Charge your camera and cellphone batteries and keep following us!
