Inspirational Quote/Goal Setting iPad Art with Sketches Pro

Recently my iPad Art Class chose a motivational quote to design artwork around and the results were wonderful. I could see using these projects to aid in mindfulness as well as potentially some goal setting with students.

I had students use the Sketches Pro app to lay out their words & lettering, then use an under layer to create artwork. I had the class design artwork that was inspired by famous masterpieces. I could see the project being successful as well if students had done original artwork to accompany the words of the quote/goal.

For users not using the Pro version of Sketches, I think this could still work by creating it all on one layer either with artwork first and then words, or creating the artwork around the words.

Once I have the entire class set complete, I will be printing them and displaying them so that students can keep focussing on motivational and inspiring statements. These will be a colorful addition to our learning space!
