Introduction to iPad in the Art ClassroomAn art room is a wonderful place for students to explore a variety of artistic mediums and express themselves. When developmentally appropriate, students should have the opportunity to experience digital art creation. For a long time the drawing tablet was the most natural tool for creating digital art but the iPad has introduced a whole new paradigm for digital expression.
The fact that the iPad can do so many different artist functions makes it a powerful learning tool for teaching the art standards in the classroom. The beauty of this device is that it is an all-in-one solution to: *shooting and editing video *take photographs and manipulate them *sculpt in 3D *Drawing and Painting *Virtually browsing art collections *Researching artist and art concepts *Learning both digital and traditional art techniques *Engaging in dialog about their own and others art work *Learn about the Elements of Art or the Principles of Design Our challenge as educators is to balance traditional media with digital media creation and develop the lessons that take advantage of this new digital tool. Hopefully this web site will get you started on that exploration. Please share you experiences, resources, lessons and favorite apps so that we can make it a rich source of inspiration. For example, I was inspired by the excellent information and resources share by Tricia Fuglestad and Suzanne Tiedemann on their web site "iPads in Art". [email protected] |

Stylus
While it can be great fun to draw with your finger, most people find they can draw or paint more accurately with a stylus.
Our district has chosen to purchase the Toshiba Table Pen Black/Chrome #PA3947U-1EAB for ~$8 from MicroK12.

Paid Drawing Painting
Procreate $5.99
Apple Design Award Winner 2013! With its gorgeous interface and incredible Silica painting engine, it’s easy to see why Procreate® is one of the hottest iPad apps available today. Packed with 48 beautiful brushes, from true-to-life sets of pencils, inks and paint brushes, to unique digital tools, Procreate is a full digital studio at your finger tips.
Artrage $2.99 http://www.artrage.com/
Get creative with paint without the mess and expense! Explore a packed toolbox of intuitive, natural painting tools like oils and watercolors that let you experiment with color blends and textures on a realistic canvas. ArtRage places the tools of a real art studio at your fingertips.
ArtRage doesn't just place color on your canvas. It keeps track of how much paint there is and how wet it is, so you can blend color under the brush as you paint, or lay down thick lines of pigment for smearing with the Palette Knife just like the real thing. Watercolors react to the wetness of the brush and paper, to create hard edged strokes or blend to soft gradients. Canvas grain affects the paint, and dry pigments break up on the surface to create textures. It's not just a special effect, it's a live simulation of the properties of real paint.
Brushes: $7.99
Brushes is a painting application designed from scratch for the iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad. Featuring an advanced color picker, several realistic brushes, multiple layers, extreme zooming, and a simple yet deep interface, it is a powerful tool for creating original artwork on your mobile device. Brushes allows you to choose any color (including transparency) using the hue/saturation color wheel. With a generous level of undo and redo you never need to worry about making a mistake or backing up too far. Layers can be rearranged, deleted, merged, and copied between paintings. You can also adjust the opacity of each layer. Web Site: http://www.brushesapp.com/
*Tim Vyner used “Brushes” on the iPad to create illustrations of the 2012 Olympic Games that were featured in The Times newspaper.
Inspire Pro: $7.99
"Try Inspire Pro and you will quickly see that it is a painting app like no other! The key feature is the simulation of wet oil paint on canvas, allowing amazing blending effects with five real kinds of brushes. You will be stunned by what you can do with a dry brush! "
Inkpad $4.99
So far, all of the apps mentioned are intended for artists who like to sketch and paint, but recently Steve Sprang/Taptrix, the developers of Brushes, released a new app called Inkpad, which is a full blown vector illustration app. Using your fingers you can tap and plot Bézier curves with the pen tool, draw geometric shapes, and make path adjustments as you work. Inkpad has an incredible depth of functionality with a well-thought-out user interface. There is a floating toolbar for the main toolset and pop-up menus for layers, color swatches, and path adjustments. Overall, Inkpad is a brilliantly executed iPad app and a mouth-watering prospect for any vector artist.
Grafio: $4.99
Create stunning diagrams, graphs and other designs with the best vector diagramming app for your iOS Device. Make professionally looking diagrams in NO TIME! Just draw on your screen as if it is your canvas and you are the artist. Simple and easy to use. The free "lite" version leaves a watermark across the image.

Reflection and Critique
One thing all three of these of these artistic disciplines have in common is the educational value of reflection on your art and critically analyzing others art work. Here are a couple tools that you can use for this purpose
Edmodo: FREE
This is a great app for connecting students with Edmodo (the educational facebook). The tricky part is students will need to setup an Edmodo account, then join your group with a code and finally make sure they log out each time they use it. First have students upload images to their library by clicking on the button on the top bar. Then they can use the "Library" button to post an image and their reflection. Then other student or instructors can also comment on this post.
Evernote: FREE
This is a great note taking app that will allow you to add images and record voice memos. The nice thing is students can setup a browser based account and sync their notes to their online account. Just remind students to log off of the iPad version of Evernote.
Skitch: FREE
Wow this little app is so cool! If you want to annotate or draw on a photograph, web page, map then this is hands down the best app out there especially when you combine it with an Evernote account.
Croak it!: FREE
This iphone app will work fine on the ipad. It allows students to record up to 30 second audio clips and then give them a URL. This can then be turned in using a Google Drive form or used to create a QR Code to go along with a piece of art. Website: http://croak.it/
