Online Drawing Boards

Tuesday January 9, 2007
My mom tells me that she's been discovering a creative side with the Jackson Pollock painting site and that yes, they can be printed out! I thought I'd see what else I could find in the way of online drawing boards. Here's a few; I know there's more out there somewhere...

GE - Imagination Cubed - A lovely big clean page to draw on with a marker - though it lacks an eraser. You can also use IM or email to invite friends to join in.
Youdraw.com - offer a simple interface which some people do amazing artwork on. You can submit your drawings for display. Youdraw have even published posters filled with hundreds of drawings, and a book is in the works.
Graffiti.playdo.com - is an online graffiti board, but you are drawing with strangers, most of whom seem to just want to scribble over everything! Beware of bad language, too.
mydrawings.com is a collective drawing / graffiti space, where you can vote on other people's artwork. It also has a mix of interesting, creative stuff and inane drivel, and again, watch out for the anti-social behavior.

As a professional illustrator, I think SketchPAN, http://www.sketchpan.com has the most versatile and easy tools to work with. Like its replaying function, flipbooks and drawing on somebody else’s drawing.
And it’s free. You should add this one, too.
