Composition Studio
Try out your composition before you touch the canvas. Finding and saving colors stays free everywhere — Studio unlocks the tools below beyond your first 3 projects.
🖌
Paint elements that aren't there yet
A tree in the corner, a figure on the path — sketch it straight onto the photo with an adjustable brush before deciding it belongs in the painting
◈
Freeform shapes for anything irregular
Drag a swatch straight onto the photo and pull its 8 points into any silhouette — for the odd shapes a brush or a simple rectangle can't quite match
▭
Clean shapes for hard edges
Rectangle & Ellipse for windows, rooftops, architecture — anywhere a straight line or a true curve reads better than a hand-drawn one
◐
Light and depth on every shape
Opacity to test how strong a color should read, plus Center-bright and Edge-bright gradients to preview how light falls across a form
💧
Any color, not just what's in the photo
Quick Palette for a color that isn't in the shot, or the eyedropper to lift one straight from the photo itself

Delete this project?
The project, its photo, and all its Color Sketches will be permanently deleted. Colors you've already saved to My Palette Memory will stay there. Deleting a project doesn't free up its Composition Studio slot — unlocking a new project later still counts as an additional one.
Composition Studio
Saving colors here stays free, always. Building compositions with Color Shapes & Opacity works in your first 3 projects — Studio unlocks it everywhere.
