All articles →How to Build a Color Palette from a Photo
Turn a reference photo into a palette you can actually use: extract the colors, assign 60-30-10 roles, fix value and contrast problems, then save it for reuse.
How to Mix Skin Tones with Paint (Without Getting Mud)
Mix believable skin tones in oil, acrylic or watercolor: a four-tube palette, undertone fixes, shadows that stay alive, and mixes from very light to very deep.
How to Price Your Art (With Worked Examples)
Price original art, commissions and prints with consistent formulas: square inch vs linear inch, cost plus time, gallery math and when to raise prices.
Why these tools exist
About the project →Most “free” art tools online are slow, bury the useful part under pop-ups, or ask you to upload your work to someone else’s server. We wanted the opposite.
Opens instantly
No sign-up, no loading screens. Each tool is a single small script that works the moment the page appears.
Your files stay with you
Images are processed on your own device and never uploaded. Close the tab and nothing is left behind.
Written from the studio floor
Every tool comes with a practical guide: how to use it, when it helps, and the mistakes we made so you don’t have to.
