First, you have your choice of a dozen slightly different painting types: Natural, Bold, Luminous, 'It's Technical', Travelogue, Rainy, Illustration, Soaked, Shallow, Color Bloom, Fashionable, and Blotted. All of the tools are available in a single sliding row at the bottom of the app. If you like what Waterlogue has done with your photo - which will happen most of the time - a tap on a heart icon lets you share your painting with Instagram, Twitter, Tumblr or have it printed on a 4 x 6 inch postcard by Sincerely and shipped 'anywhere in the world.' Your artworks can also be saved to your Photo Library, opened in another app, or emailed.Īs a user, you could just stop there as your results are usually fantastic, but Waterlogue lets you tweak your images. Waterlogue is very simple to use: just launch the app, take a photo or select one from your photo library by tapping a camera button, and then let Waterlogue work its magic.

Waterlogue (US$2.99) is a universal iOS app from Tinrocket, LLC's John Balestrieri and Robert Clair that does one thing - transforming your photos into watercolor-like images - very well. I say 'tried' because most of those have failed to do a good job. Many apps have provided filters to enhance or destroy our photographs, and some of those filters have tried to turn photos into what look like paintings or drawings. hahaha! 🙂įresh lilies that are finally in bloom.Since the App Store launched, one of the more busy categories has been Photo & Video apps. Of course, you wouldn’t get the editing effect that only an artist’s practised eye and talent can give you, but these are really wonderful! Expect to see a lot of watercolors on my instagram feed now. I couldn’t wait to try it out, so I took photos of our home using my iPhone 5s and ran them on the app. Interior designers have been the fastest to use it, turning their work into gorgeous watercolors in an instant.

Now we can convert anything we want into a watercolor painting, thanks to a wonderful new app called Waterlogue! Perhaps it’s partly because it is such a difficult medium – it’s almost impossible to correct mistakes. There is something about watercolor paintings that I find so beautiful.
