Great idea! I love the thought of people who can't use their hands have the chance of using something like this to create and inspire themselves.
Good luck with it!

An option to use the touchpad (and/or voice control) would be nice tho for a later release version, as gaze control as easy and intuitive it might be, can be a bit cumbersome if you always have to wait for a selection timer to finish (or it is to fast and you select things you dident want, as it is in f.e. Viral, great game tho)

Very nice, I like the idea and interface. The studio environment looks very good.
You have probably already considered it:
I'm sure some folk will want to produce some "real" art with this so... have the ability for the artist to load any photo from their phone and have it to one side of the canvas as a reference. Maybe even allow painting on a copy of the photo.
Keep up the great work!
