The Warhol: Silkscreen Printing
A fun interactive tool that allows you to create a Warhol style silkscreen. The initial images that you have to choose from is a bit limited and the only real control you have over the silkscreen is the coloring, but the site provides a good virtual representation of the process. The end product looks good and you can email it or screencapture it. |

Odosketch
This is a flash-based drawing application that provides some fun tools for sketching on your computer. Even if you are not as good as the featured gallery artists, most drawings tend to come out looking good. They provide a rather limited palette of colors but they seem to go well with each other. The site also allows you to save your work. Another fun and usefull element to the site is that it shows work from other artists and loads the piece in the order in which is was drawn. It helps students understand the order to drawing and shading.
