« Isn’t it about time 5-13 year-olds were given the chance to mash up Van Gogh’s sunflowers with Monet’s waterlillies and Cézanne’s fruit? It’s a fab idea! » www.appsplayground.com

« Aspiring young artists (of any age) can actually create their own art by using various items from artists’ original work. Brilliant! » www.smartappsforkids.com
