Art!

Now to explore Art sites.

The NGA site I've seen before but I did check out the still life option.  I created one, but found the technology old and clunky.  There must be something better out there. This Arts Connected site is similar  but with a bit more learning involved.

Squinchpix is really cool - it's a visual dictionary of historical sites and related art in Europe.

Cosketch is great for sharing visual ideas between 2 people online.  The few stamps included are appropriate - for example, in 'sports' there's a field with markings - soccer? 

the MOWA site, Museum of Web Art has a resources page with MORE ART sites to explore!

Shiddoni was fun  but it was a game where you created characters, settings etc. and earned more options thru playing games with your created chracters.  - good computer drawing skills  a plus.  Not something I'd use in the art classroom.   

Splashup, a photo editing site ( maybe also a drawing site) had me stumped from the start 'cause i couldnt resize a photo I was gonna play with.  So, ease of use is an issue for now.

Myoats is very a cool radial symmetry tool.  Seems like you can also use it for regular drawing but I couldnt figure that out.  I think the students would really like this site.

That's it for now.  I'll check out  more later.
