Brushes App for iPhone


Brushes, $4.99 This app needs no better endorsement than that of Portuguese illustrator Jorge Colombo, who famously used it to illustrate the image used on the cover of June’s New Yorker magazine.



While other “doodling” apps let you execute MS Paint caliber illustrations, Brushes acts like a full-on painting simulator. Think along the lines of an ultra-simple Photoshop. Of course, if you can’t put together a chilling still life on canvas with real paint, don’t expect to do it on an iPhone screen with your fingers.
