New Yorker Cover Designed on iPhone
Tuesday, May 26th, 2009 at 8:05 AM - by Jeff Gamet
Apple's iPhone can play music and videos, tell you where your are, make phone calls, and even create the cover art for The New Yorker. Artist Jorge Colombo digitally painted the scene showing a hot dog stand on 42nd Street with the US$4.99 iPhone app Brushes.

Mr. Colombo told the New York Times that working with his iPhone and the Brushes app made it easy for me to sketch without having to carry all my pens and brushes and notepads with me, and I like the fact that I am drawing with a set of tools that anybody can have easily in their pocket."
Painting with his iPhone gave Mr. Colombo the ability to stand on a street corner and paint while watching the hotdog stand without being noticed since he didn't need to bring along paints, canvas or easel. It also showed that Apple's "there's an app for that" line applies even to painting the cover of The New Yorker.
