In this series I present the full range of possibilities of creating photo-art with a smartphone. Ranging from surrealistic painting-like scènes to abstract graphics with repetitive patterns.

Apps used for making this pieces: Snapseed, Superimpose, Mirrorlab and Colorise.

Ruben van Gogh (1967) is a poet, libretto writer and smartphone-art maker.

He has published 7 volumes of poetry, and wrote over 10 opera librettos. He recently translated Menotti's opera: The boy who grew too fast in Dutch, for the Dutch National Opera. Currently he is working on a libretto for a twitter opera.

In his spare time he looks around, and when he runs into something which isn't there, he takes a picture of it with his smartphone and, using snapseed and other apps, transforms it to what he saw in reality.
