On Facebook there is a graffiti application where you can draw a pic using a circle brush of various sizes, and can control for opaqueness. you then have a palette to chose from. there are some really amazing pieces on the public gallery!
i have trouble drawing on the computer tho, because i'm left handed but i use my right hand for things like machinery and other devices so thoughtlessly designed for the majority. i also think it's weird to draw with mouse instead of a pen, but many seem to make just as many beautiful drawings with only a mouse as those with a pen. i guess i can only blame my skills for that one.
any how, despite my lefty handicap, i think i draw okay. i took a drawing that inspired me, and which i wanted to improve. on this one i felt the leg in the air was too far back, so i wanted to redraw it with the leg where i wanted it. i didn't really look at the other person's drawing while doing my own. it was from memory, which is why they look nothing alike, except of course the concept of a gurl lying on her belly touching a flower. note i left out the whole message about the flower changing her world form black and white to colour. oh well, i say. i think mine is warmer any ways. and if the point is to feel happy when looking at the picture, then mine wins. but maybe i'm biased because i drew it.
and as a comparison, here is one of my favorites found on the public gallery:
