This app turns your iPad into a classic-art flannel board, stocked with the key elements from five artists -- Vincent Van Gogh, Paul Cézanne, Claude Monet, Henri Rousseau and Paul Klee. You can either try to recreate the original masterpiece, by dragging and dropping the elements, or compose your own. The app features 100 elements and 25 canvasses, from the artists' original paintings, to choose from. You can tap, drag and resize the elements on the iPad screen however you like. Other features let you duplicate them, or mirror, lock, bring to the front or send to the back. When you are finished, you can save your artwork in "My Museum" with a title and your name, then share it with friends on Facebook, or save to you iPad photo gallery to print or email to friends. You can also visit the Artists Museum to find their original paintings, meet the artists, learn their stories, and watch videos. Need to know: The sound effects and music are strange, and the interface is a bit clunky.
