Higher = larger, easier-to-paint sections. Lower = more detail.

How it works

Three simple steps

From photo to canvas in under a minute.

1

Upload a photo

Portraits, pets, flowers, landscapes โ€” anything works. Your photo is used only to make the canvas and is never saved.

2

Adjust the settings

Choose how many colors and how much detail you want. The defaults work great to start.

3

Paint digitally or print

Fill each numbered section in your browser, or save and print the canvas to paint by hand.

I picked a photo of my dog, made the canvas, and started painting the same afternoon. It was surprisingly relaxing.

FAQ

Common questions

Is it free to use?

Yes, completely free. Sign in with Google once to create your canvas โ€” that's what lets your paintings sync and be there when you come back. No payment, ever.

Is my photo uploaded or stored?

Your photo is sent over an encrypted connection to our processing server, only to turn it into a canvas. It is handled in memory and discarded as soon as the canvas is ready, and we never save it. Your finished canvases and painting progress are stored only in your own browser.

Do I need painting experience?

None at all. Just follow the numbers and fill each section โ€” the canvas guides you the whole way.

What image formats are supported?

You can upload PNG, JPG, or WEBP files up to 25 MB. Most phone camera photos work perfectly.

What does Simplification Level do?

It controls section size. Higher = larger, easier-to-paint shapes. Lower = more detail and smaller sections. Start at 1 if you want a detailed canvas.

Can I paint digitally or do I need to print it?

Both. You can paint directly in your browser using the digital canvas, or save the image and print it to paint by hand.

Can I use it on my phone or tablet?

Yes. The tool works on any modern browser, including mobile. Upload from your camera roll and paint on the go.

Is there a limit on how many canvases I can make?

No limit. Create as many as you want. Your canvases are saved in your browser so you can return to them anytime.
