What Apps Are We Using This Month? with Sukru Mehmet Omur
Welcome to TheAppWhisperer’s new section, “what apps are we using this month” series, where we discover which apps you are particularly enjoying. Kicking us off today is non-other than Award Winning Mobile Photographer, Sukru Mehmet Omur.
This month I use as I always do the apps Hipstamatic and ProCamera for shooting. I use Snapseed and Picsplay for editing and I particularly love the clarity function in Picsplay. For texture and filters I prefer to use Distressed FX and Formula. And Pixanova for layering. I want to experiment with Lightroom and Photoshop Express for shooting and editing.
I think also the AI will be the future of mobile artistry, I love to experiment with different applications to understand the best they can give.
For further experimental use Imaengine for ink work. It gives interesting and some beautiful results. I recommend mobile artists to experiment with different applications that they can find in Apple store and to always finish their work with a Snapseed touch.
I think experimenting with layering textures and filters are very important in this mobile artistry world.
Best wishes to all my mobile artists friends and thank you so much for supporting this community.

Joanne Carter
Joanne Carter, creator of the world’s most popular mobile photography and art website— TheAppWhisperer.com— TheAppWhisperer platform has been a pivotal cyberspace for mobile artists of all abilities to learn about, to explore, to celebrate and to share mobile artworks. Joanne’s compassion, inclusivity, and humility are hallmarks in all that she does, and is particularly evident in the platform she has built. In her words, “We all have the potential to remove ourselves from the centre of any circle and to expand a sphere of compassion outward; to include everyone interested in mobile art, ensuring every artist is within reach”, she has said. Promotion of mobile artists and the art form as a primary medium in today’s art world, has become her life’s focus. She has presented lectures bolstering mobile artists and their art from as far away as the Museum of Art in Seoul, South Korea to closer to her home in the UK at Focus on Imaging. Her experience as a jurist for mobile art competitions includes: Portugal, Canada, US, S Korea, UK and Italy. And her travels pioneering the breadth of mobile art includes key events in: Frankfurt, Naples, Amalfi Coast, Paris, Brazil, London. Pioneering the world’s first mobile art online gallery - TheAppWhispererPrintSales.com has extended her reach even further, shipping from London, UK to clients in the US, Europe and The Far East to a global group of collectors looking for exclusive art to hang in their homes and offices. The online gallery specialises in prints for discerning collectors of unique, previously unseen signed limited edition art. Her journey towards becoming The App Whisperer, includes (but is not limited to) working for a paparazzi photo agency for several years and as a deputy editor for a photo print magazine.
