Pocket Artist

iPad App

Objective: Create an app that will let you color in abstract art in the style of 1920's artist Piet Mondrian.

Problem: How can we make a grid that looks like something Mondrian would have used?

Solution: Make the grid in stages:

  1. Divide the screen into a regular grid.
  2. Offset the gridlines by random numbers to create an irregular distance between the lines.
  3. Combine some sets of adjacent cells into single cells.
  4. Create buttons from the resulting cells, so we can detect touch events.
