Bridgeman Art Doodle App: Van Gogh + Street Art? Yes, please.

I've always believed it's super important to expose a child to the arts at a very young age. It gives them a better understanding of the world around them and helps them everyday objects in a new light. And while of course it may inspire them to create something themselves, after my kids saw a street art exhibit, they wanted to spray paint my backyard.

Thankfully, there's an art app that's a little less destructive on the peonies.
Bridgeman definitely has the right background--the company works with museums, artists, and collectors to make art available for reproduction. And their new Bridgeman Art Doodle app is ridiculously fun. You can choose from a myriad of types of art from masters like Van Gogh and Bottticelli. Then, you take a paintbrush, dip it in some pixelated paint, and add some new strokes to update a familiar scene.

The instant gratification is so satisfying--then once you're done, you can post it to your own online gallery. I mean, your kid can. Er, we're still working on sharing. -Eva
