Being 45 years as a professional artist, we didn't have 'apps' when creating and selling our work. It was good ol' traveling the country displaying and selling our work. But now, being semi-retired, I welcome the internet and all the apps that are being created everyday. I love using AI to help me think thru a piece, place a piece in a room for display or just coming up with ideas. Other apps let you have a store and sell. Also payments on the apps such as Venmo or Zelle makes it much easier to get paid for a piece instead of having to call it in to a bank which took sometimes as long as 20 minutes if there is a problem or waiting for checks to clear. I wish they had these apps back in the day, I wouldn't have been so exhausted on Mondays after a week-end of traveling, setting up, sitting, talking to people, answering the same questions some are not so great...keep smiling and wondering who will watch my booth while I take a break. Now, I work from home and have many multiple stores on line besides my web-site where I can sell and email blasts! The best thing ever. I was so busy last Christmas season I felt like I was locked in my studio for 2 months..not complaining...grateful.

That being said, the AIs also is not good for us artist that gets our work copied, changed around without my permission. That is a big deal. Also with musicians they just say a few words what the song will be like, some lyrics and out come a song, words and all. What will happen in the future? I'm hoping that if you use AI to create a piece, there will be laws in place saying that you have to have that put in on the description that you collaborated with AI same as if two artists made a piece together.

I hope this helps, these are just my thoughts from my years of experience on creating and selling art. And remember, let your art grow with your creativity, don't be afraid to try new things or your work will get stale.

If you're asking about drawing apps, I'd say try to look for a desktop equivalent, since drawing on such a small space can be limiting and inconvenient to some. But if you're looking for something else that fits in a backpack, try starting a sketchbook! It'll challenge you in new ways, encourage you to try new tools, and make you more conscious about the drawing process, since layering works differently on paper.
