# iPhone Cover Art New Yorker's June Cover Drawn Entirely on the iPhone By Rose Nazarali | Published 2009-05-25 | Pop Culture Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/new-yorker-iphone References: [gizmodo](http://gizmodo.com/5268926/june-1st-new-yorker-cover-drawn-entirely-on-the-iphone) & [newyorker](http://www.newyorker.com/online/blogs/tny/2009/05/jorge-colombo-iphone-cover.html) The [iPhone](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/freeform-app) seems to have many more uses than meets the eye--like [drawing an entire cover](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/framous) for a syndicated magazine. The New Yorker’s June cover will feature artwork completely drawn on the iPhone. Using the [Brushes application](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/adobe-photoshop-app-for-iphone), which costs $4.99, the artists portrayed silhouettes of a NY hot dog stand. I found this New Yorker cover to be quite impressive. The illustration itself is something to stop and look at, but knowing it was created on an iPhone makes this unusual artistry that much more exciting. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.7/10 - Popularity: 5% | Activity: 68% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 90% men, 10% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Pop Culture](https://www.trendhunter.com/popculture) > [Media](https://www.trendhunter.com/media) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Digital Art:** The rise of digital art platforms and tools presents opportunities for artists to create innovative and unique artwork using devices like the iPhone. - **Mobile Creativity:** The increasing availability of mobile applications and tools empowers artists to unleash their creativity on-the-go and create stunning artwork using smartphones. - **Democratization of Art:** The ability to create professional-level art on affordable and widely available devices like the iPhone challenges traditional notions of art creation and opens up possibilities for a broader range of artists to express themselves. ### Who This Affects Most - **Digital Art Platforms:** Companies that develop and promote digital art platforms can tap into the growing demand for innovative tools and services that enable artists to create and showcase their artwork digitally. - **Mobile Application Development:** The development of user-friendly mobile applications specifically designed for creative purposes presents opportunities for developers to cater to the needs of artists and designers looking to create art on their smartphones. - **Art Education and Workshops:** The rapid adoption of digital art tools and techniques calls for specialized art education and workshops that equip artists with the necessary skills and knowledge to leverage these technologies for their artistic endeavors. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [AI-Fueled Digital Art Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/drawww.md) - [Pop Artist-Collaborative Phone Cases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/casetify-and-andy-warhol.md) - [Smartphone App Iconography Books](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ios-app-icon-book.md) - [Surrealist Phone Cases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/salvador-dali-x-casetify.md) - [Artistic UV-Reactive Smartphones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/polychromatic-mobile-phone.md) - [Creative Infinite Whiteboard Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/freeform-app.md) - [Artwork-Covered Smartphone Models](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tecno-camon-20-x-mr-doodle-edition.md) - [Digital Craft Platforms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/apple-and-design-miami.md) - [Colorful Tech Stylus Devices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/apple-crayon-pro.md)
