Palm Art Gallery

Yesterday, I received a nice email from Karen Larson (a Tipsheet reader and fellow graphic designer) about PalmArt.us, her new gallery website of Palm-created artwork. I stopped by for a look and was impressed with the color and quality of the pieces on display, all of them created on Palm handhelds!

Now, I dunno why, but I've never spent much time using my handheld as an art tool. What's worse, as an artist, I have no good excuses! So, I've grabbed copies of a few different Palm-based drawing tools: TealPaint, Mobile Paint, DrawIt and Scrawl so that I can begin work on a portfolio of Palm artwork to submit to Karen's site.

If you're an artist (or you just play one on TV) the gallery accepts submissions and even has a tech info area to help you transfer your Palm art to a Mac or PC for submission. To submit, drop Karen an email with your art attached, your name, city, state, country, hardware and software used to create the art and artwork title and/or inspiration.

Even if you choose not to submit anything to the PalmArt gallery, why not grab a drawing tool for your Palm handheld and have a bit of fun making art? :-)
