Des Moines Botanical Center.
Inside it is an artist dream...
To my knowledge, it’s just this phone.
A place where plenty of people have painted plenty of pretty pictures.
What I’ve done is I’ve used the rainbow tool to get this turquoise .
...including, Brett Rogers
Yep, just me and my cell phone on my lunch break
This specific phone is the Verizon LG Dare.
I learned back in the summer that LG put a drawing pad in here.
Rogers says he may just be the only cellphone artist in the world.
This is a great opportunity for me to just practice anywhere I go.
The canvas is compact.
An inch and a half by an inch of three quarters
But with just six basic colors Rogers has created more than sixty images.
It's got a very limited pallet, but there is also a tool on it that allows me to get an extended color range. So I can actually do things that almost look painted.
He wants Verizon to take advantage of this underused artist specific application.
But (if) they would mark it that way I think that they’d attract much bigger audience.
So he recently assembled this poster and sent it to company headquarters in New Jersey.
So if this sells more phones for Verizon. There has to be something on Brett’s horizon, right?
Yeah, there is, but it is not really very much.
If I get the free cellphone usage for my family out of this, I am good, that, that’ll work for me.
Until Verizon answers, artist Brett Rogers: (I think I've just about , got it), will keep bringing up pretty pictures on his phone.
Yep, I am done.
