Artists Anywhere and Everywhere

Tablets and Apps are creating more and more design programs where you can free-style, and experiment on your own, with no teacher or leader.  A sketching and painting software called Sketchbook has over 25 million users and over 12,000 downloads across all different platforms. Everyday people who would never describe themselves as artists all the way to professionals have access to these types of programs.  That is a beautiful thing!

Musicians are using apps to create sounds that have never been heard before.

Actors are using apps to audition for plays and movies. Steve Coulter, a professional actor who played in the Hunger Games uses his tablet to audition for films and TV shows. His audition for Taken 3, taken on his Tablet has been successful and the movie will be released next year!

There are numerous photo apps that allow you to edit the quality of your photos. Instagram, Procreate, Image Blender, and Photosynth are among the few that can drastically change the quality and creativity of your photo.

This is seen as a turning point in time.  People who may not normally take the time out of their day to create a photo collage or buy some canvas' and paints can express their creativity very easily through use of these apps.  This use of technology is seen as extremely rewarding.
