So many of you mentioned yesterday that you were dying to get your hands on the Fresh Paint app yourself. Well, here’s your chance! The Fresh Paint team provided me with a tablet with the Windows 8 software, a keyboard dock (making your tablet basically a fully functioning laptop), and a really cool stylus brush to give away so you can create your own masterpieces in Fresh Paint.
So to enter to win the tablet, keyboard and brush stylus, please leave a comment on this post, sharing what type of painting projects you’d try with the Fresh Paint app. Abstracts? Portraits? Hoping to import a photo in using the “wet paint” function? Feel free to link to inspiration images. We’d love to see!
***This just in! CanvasPop is throwing in a free 12×18 custom canvas print of your masterpiece as part of the give away. How’s that for sweetening the pot? :)
Contest ends Sunday May 5 at midnight. I’ve opened up the comments to allow for unregistered users. The winner will be emailed so please be sure to leave you email address if you’re not signed in. Good luck!
floral prints are always my go to!
I would definitely start with the imported photo – fun!
definitely abstracts and would love to do some portraits of my sweet boy
I think it would be so much fun to try this app for pet portraits – such a hot trend right now and this could make it seamless!
Your portrait of your grandmother was beautiful by the way – a great heirloom to add to your family.
I think I'd end up trying everything! Abstracts first, then on to portraits and landscapes and beyond.
I would import a portrait and paint it. But it would actually be a picture of my son"s back. We found a painting that looks like my daughter from the back, so I would love to paint one of my son. tgrimshaweoc@hotmail.com
I love abstracts! But I'd probably attempt a portrait.
Just bought a house and would love to create some original artwork for our bare walls! Hope I win :)
I'd love to just mess around with it, but painting over pictures sounds fantastic.
This is so cool! As a mom of two little ones I rarely get a chance to bring out the oils (so messy! so time-consuming! so delicious looking to my 11-month old!). This would make working on my abstract paintings so much easier!
I'd love to work on some portraits! I'm a graphic designer with a fine arts background, but I always felt that my portraits could use some improvement. The Windows 8 tablet seems like it'd be the perfect way to combine my fine arts background with my digital side.
Wow, you can make things like that on a tablet? How awesome! I'd love to try :-)
I'd love to try painting over a photo – I'm not very artistic on my own, but I think it would be so fun to try!
Portraits for sure.
I just took thousands (seriously) of pictures on a vacation and I would love to use the app to transforms some of the photos into pieces I could give to family and friends as gifts!
Portraits!! I need all the help I can get with my art!
I woul try to recreate travel photos!
Lovely!! I have been trying my hands at all kinds of paintings recently & would love to paint abstracts with this. Please count me in.

This app makes me so excited! So many possibilities! I would love to try my hand at landscapes and abstract painting. I love the portrait you did of your grandmother. How fun to import a wedding photo and paint over that. Oh the possibilities!! I would be thrilled to own this package, great giveaway!!
Holy cow! I'm in! I'm an abstract girl at heart — but this app will let me hone my skills with still life projects that I 'm trying to do!
Eeek! Love! I'd like to use the wet paint app to 'paint' some of my favorite photographs of favorite places. So, so cool!

I would love to paint something abstract.
I would try my hand at some abstract portraits!
I love portraiture but sometimes, like you, I'm too tired to drag out all my supplies! So excited about that brush stylus!

Oh the possibilities! I would love to import our wedding photo to paint over. So fun!
I think it would be cool to try to render floor plans of rooms or to paint over photos of interior spaces. Such a cool app and thanks for the giveaway!
I would love to paint abstracts with this!
I would definitely do a portrait of my dog! Wet Paint sounds so fun and a good creative outlet for someone who lives in a small apartment.
I like to do celebrity portaits.

I like the idea of trying wet paint or importing a picture like you did. I also love bird and botanical paintings so I would be doing those also.
We have long cold winters in Alaska! The App would help keep me busy while I wait for the thaw. I take lots of photos and would love to try using a photo with the wet paint App. The inspiration in endless. Moose, glaciers, eagles, bears and some of the most beautiful sunsets over ice crystal covered forests. What wouldn't I paint? Thank you for your blog.
This is so great! I would start with abstracts, something simple and colorful, and maybe work my way up to portraits if I felt confident.
I would try painting my kids by playing with an existing photo.
Looks so cool!

I would love to try out some abstract florals. Springtime is inspiring me. :)
I'd love to make something with an imported photo. I am imagining something fun, colorful and abstract out of a beloved photo.
Abstracts and lots and lots of color!
I am aching to try my hand at abstracts… and importing photos. The whole deal really!
I think it would be cool to render floor plans or paint over photos of interior spaces. Super cool app and fabulous giveaway!

I love the few things that you have shared with us! Now I'm dying to try myself! I think I'd get my feet wet using family photos.
Gorgeous! This looks so fun. I've been lusting after a surface for a while now :)
I would love to win this! I'm just finishing up my studio art degree in painting! I think this would be a wonderful "sketchbook" for planning paintings! Abstracts are my favorite! :)
I would definitely want to experiment with the wet paint feature. Being able to take a memory from your past and recreate it (and maybe abstract it a bit) in paint form sounds amazing!
I would love to try my hand at all different types! It would be really fun to import the photo I have from my house growing up, it had a beautiful sunset view that would look lovely in paint!
Wow! Great giveaway! No idea what I'd paint; I used to love doing watercolors. Do they have an app for that?
Abstract, I think. But I have been wanting to be more creative lately abpnd this would be great for that!
Would love to use this to do patterns and get back into being creative with "painting" abstracts.
I am intrigued by the wet paint feature!
Oh wow, I just moved and have a lot of empty wall space- I'd paint abstracts for sure, and I'd love to try the photo program xx
