Turn your tablet into visual classical art blender. Using a set of well-designed menus, you can drag and drop elements snipped from famous paintings onto work area. Each item can be tinted, resized, replaced or erased. If you hold your finger over the item (say a nose), you see it in the context of the original work making this a nice soft introduction to classical art. You can also shake your device to quickly remix the project. This lends authenticity and context to your project. Content includes 200 items (bodies, eyes, noses and so on) that can be mixed and matched in an infinite number of combinations. Despite all the variation, all the projects have a similar look. Work can be shared publicly in the app gallery, or sent as a digital postcard. Designed by Giuseppe Ragazzini from Milan.
