Drawsome the App

Are you as amazed as I am by the number of wonderful apps out there?  I found one recently that has really got my attention in a big way.  DrawSomething.  On my iPhone or iPad, one finger and a bunch of color choices to  get another person to guess the word you picked based on what you drew.  I’m constantly delighted to see how the simplest line gesture can suggest so much. It’s a treat. I’m not advertising for the app.  It’s just that so many artists, including myself, work very hard to get things just right, trying to make something perfect in their art.  This is a delight because of the freedom to NOT get it right.  Just have fun and get the idea across.  So here’s a video of a few of my drawings I managed to save along the way.  Better to keep those creative juices flowing by whatever means, this is one I’ve found that really works for me…

Welcome to the wonderful colorful world of Charr Crail, artist, photographer, teacher, author, mentor, fabric designer and all around creatively insatiable woman!  In this blog I will be posting pictures, ideas, inspirations, life lessons and anything that inspires my lively quirky brain that I consider worth sharing.  Comments are not only appreciated but encouraged!  Please share!

This site is a bit in the creation stage so your patience while I get all the tentacles planned for this site together is appreciated.  I teach a wide variety of workshops including Photography and the Arts and will be posting details and dates soon.

In the meantime here’s a fun photo from a series I’m working on… This one is Skull of Frivolity.
