Android apps for artists/art lovers ?

Hi,

Android platform is growing and more and more people are using an android phone or an android tablet. Some painting/art dedicated applications are still in development and sometimes there are no equivalent, compared to iphone/ipad app sets.

What are your experiences on the android platform and what applications, do you use for game/entertainment/education or daily work as an artist or art lover ? :)

Any suggestions to enrich this topic is welcome. Its main objective is to have a panorama of "Art" dedicated apps for the android platform. Thanks in advance for your contributions :)

I do no art on my phone. I leave that up to photoshop on my laptop. although I did use to have a line-rider app, and that included drawing, but not for aesthetic purposes.

With the arrival of tablet computer/superphone (galaxy tab/motorola tab/htc tab...etc), i think these solutions will be of main interests for digital art :-)
