If you have an iPhone, you have an impressive collection of photographs you’ve taken with it. Get creative with these “best of” apps to create water colors from your favorites. It’s one of the best ways to chill out on a night when you just need to rest and regroup.

Why not just use the Photos app on your iPhone? If you want to turn your photos into real works of printable, framable art, you need to go beyond a standard filter. By the way, you don’t need to be inherently artistic. Maybe you would never pick up a brush and try to paint a water color.

The following apps make it simple to create a masterpiece in minutes from the archive of photographs on your iPhone or iPad. Look these up on the iTunes app store and give them a try: Glaze, Popsicolor, Brushstroke and Repix. Each gives you slightly different tools. Trying out the same photo in each allows you to get familiar with what that App has to offer.

If you have an image with a lot of detail, apping it can help you to simplify, focusing on a particular part or aspect of the photograph, removing the background and making the foreground more subtle. You can app a photo so that it looks like a new image. Smooth out surfaces; add texture and fun objects, like a bird, or random dandelion fairy-seeds. Create a retro look. When you combine apps, you’ll get a completely unique look.

Allow yourself to play, just play, and see what happens. Enjoy the process, the relaxed, almost meditative nature of it. For inspiration, check out the iPhone gallery at sandranykerk.com.

You may end up with an image that looks like a water color or art print. That’s especially fun when you print to different textures of paper.

As you gather a portfolio of images you want to show off, consider setting up changeable displays on the walls of your living or work space. Create your own collage wall by choosing varied sizes of frames that share a theme or color. Or go for the gusto with Collagewall, a product available at F-11 Photographic Supplies. It beautifully displays varied sizes of images printed to metal and makes it simple to trade them out whenever you have something new and awesome to add. Apped photos can be submitted for printing just like a “regular” image.

Who knew you could have so much fun with your images?
