Paintwell

Paintwell turns a photo into a painting plan for real paint.

Photograph a reference, or a painting you're partway through, and Paintwell finds the colors in it and works out how to mix each one from actual tubes: which paints, and how much of each. Tell it the paints you own and every recipe uses your shelf. Then it plans the painting itself, step by step.

Built for oil and acrylic painters.

PLAN - Painting plan: your painting in the order a painter works, from the drawing and the underpainting to the last highlights, each step with its mixes and its time. Watch it as a timelapse, save the video or share it, and keep the plan as a PDF. - Estimate: how much of each paint a canvas of your size needs. Then see the painting on your wall through the camera, at that size.

MIX - Color: every important color in the image, each with a recipe from real, buyable paints. - Mix Guide: hold your mix under the camera. It tells you which way you're off and by how much, and lights up when you match. - Mixing sheet: every mix numbered where it appears on the canvas, on one page you can print and keep by the easel.

SEE - Lens: point the camera at anything, a leaf, a wall, a photo, and pick out its colors. Lock the exposure and save what you find. - Value: a nine-step value study of your reference, with a loupe that reads the value under your finger. - Line drawing and Trace: turn the photo into clean lines, then trace or grid them onto your canvas. - Progress: photograph the painting as you go and see which passages have drifted from the reference while there's still time to fix them. - Expert review: an AI-written critique of value, temperature, edges and composition, with the reasoning shown. - Colorblind assist: for red-weak, green-weak or blue-weak color vision, colors that are hard to tell apart are pushed apart on screen. Recipes and plans always use the true colors.

SHOP - List: every tube your projects need in one place, ready for the store or for ordering online.

PALETTES - Your paints, artist palettes and colors you've saved, all in one place. Mix from any of them. - Explore: browse the palettes of working painters, see what a painting you admire is made of, and save its palette in one tap. - Publish your own work with its palette, and export a portfolio as a PDF.
