A Review of the 53 Pen and Rebirth of My Art Career

Published 1/22/2014 by Rob Meronek

I posted a while back about Mark Gonzales' YouTube Channel and the amazing weird videos he posts there. He uses the Paper app for iPad from what I can tell. I use the same one when I pretend I'm an artist and not a nerd. Well, the folks at Paper recently made a great stylus for the iPad that not only works with their app, but others on iPad like Photoshop. Brittany got me the 53 Pen for Christmas and after getting to use it, I think I'm going to use it to clown up every single photo I take from now on.

From the look and feel of it to the packaging to how easy it is to connect it by simply pressing it onto the screen in the Paper App, it's a product that's buttoned up from its tech guts to pretty presentation.

My art career is hereby reborn and I am laying a few of my initial masterpieces at your feet for your retina pleasure. You're welcome.

Cory Kennedy Naked With the Fifty Three Pen

Did you see that wallride backside flip out sequence on Burnout? Damn, Cory Kennedy definitely sold his soul to get that good at skateboarding or committed the first sin Adam and Eve style or something like that. I don't know my religious and superstitious stories too well, but I do know there was a naked dude who ate an apple from a tree and that's how the world started.

Alvis Meronek's Hair With the Fifty Three Pen

With Brittany's hair and mine combined, this is how I'd imagine my son might look in a couple decades.

That's the pen and the Photoshop iPad app that will unleash more creativity from you than a bag of proper mushrooms at the lake. Give it a try.
