Paint Online

• Ok Rothko this is not. But give artpad a try and hang your canvas in a virtual gallery. Sometimes you just need to work with color without getting your hands dirty.

Craftsman Style Tile Designs

• The Victoria and Albert Museum online site offers a wonderful variety of interactive art experiences. I found this tile generator along with others that allow people of all ages to play and create. One will find it hard to exhaust the possibilities of making pleasing designs.

Photo Mosaics

• Try the Montagerator. You can create with your own images or use some of the options provided on the site. I chose to leave text overlay out this time. The red and white snowflake designs I had previously created using Photoshops tools. 

Photo to Text

• Have fun with this Photo2text generator. It will transform your photo using random letters. It will work on reduced sized images with greater success.

Language Art

• Go to Festisite for more text generators.

Random Text

• If you just need to get some inspiration. There is site which generates random text collages. Linguasso.

Name Art

• This is a simple way to inspire an abstract and tidy piece of art. Your name is the starting point. See where the process will take you. Spell your name but not in the traditional left to right sequence. Each letter must touch at varying angles but do not overlap the letters. Draw a frame around the cluster of letters and then make various color choices to fill in the shapes created by the name jumble. The beautiful picture above was made by Krystle Seu. She decided to add a curve at the end of each of her letters . It reminds me of latticework or calligraphy or delicate stained glass.
