apps for artists: waterlogue

 

So a lot of people play games on their tablets or smart phones when they have time to fill or kill. It seems that the only time I EVER have time to fill or kill is when I’m traveling. Even then I usually have hand work or something to keep me busy while I listen to an audio book. But sometimes I just want to play. Instead of playing games I end up “playing photos.”

I was cruising Facebook and saw that Susan Brubaker Knapp had posted a picture using the Waterlogue app for iPhone and I was immediately hooked. I had just enough time to download the app before I boarded the plane and spent the whole ride playing.

Here is the original photo, taken at the top of the mountain at Snowbird Ski Resort in ear Salt Lake City, Utah.

I learned that the best pictures for use in this app have clearly defined contrast – light/dark etc.

You can adjust the setting within the app and try different filters to give it different looks.

I’m SURE you’ll be seeing more photos here with this app. Enjoy!
