Painter's Tools

iOS Universel / Utilitaires

Elevate your traditional painting process with professional-grade analysis tools. Whether you’re a plein air painter or a studio artist, Painter’s Tools helps you translate what you see into what you paint.

Stop guessing and start analyzing. Painter’s Tools is a dedicated suite of digital aids designed specifically for traditional artists. Use your device to break down complex references into manageable data, ensuring your values, colors, and measurements are spot-on every time.


KEY FEATURES:

1. Master Values & Form
Grayscale & Contrast: Instantly strip away color to analyze the "bones" of your reference.
Value Simplification (Posterization): Group complex gradients into 2–10 solid value steps to see the abstract shapes that build a great painting.

2. Analytical Color Mixing
Pixel-Perfect Picker: Tap any spot on your image to see its exact color and location with our high-precision magnifier.
The Mixing Guide: Get a suggested mixing recipe based on a standard painter’s palette (Cadmium Red, Alizarin Crimson, Ultramarine Blue, etc.), helping you hit that elusive hue.

3. Precision Measurement
Physical Calibration: Input your canvas height, and the app calculates real-world distances.
Grid Overlay: Use a grid to transfer your reference photos onto your work

4. The Ultimate Compare Tool
Painting Overlay: Take a photo of your work-in-progress and overlay it on your reference with an adjustable transparency slider.
Independent Pan & Zoom: Move and scale your painting and reference separately for perfect manual alignment.
Flash Mode: Rapidly toggle between your painting and the reference to "spot the difference" and catch drawing errors instantly.

5. Smart Canvas Setup
Locked Aspect Ratios: Crop your reference to match your canvas exactly (Square, 3:4, 4:3, 16:9, and more).
Dedicated Reference View: A clean, distraction-free environment to view your reference photo while you work.

WHY PAINTER’S TOOLS?
