An easy way that I know of is using a graphic library and creating a GUI program, but I don't think it fit for beginner.
You can use SDL, which is pretty easy to learn and is cross-platform.

Unfortunately I don't have any experience with Xcode.

Edit:
Bear in mind that getting into graphics programming is not going to be "simple"; it will take some work, but SDL is rather nice to start with.
