PaintLapse: Art Timelapse

Pick one photo and get a time-lapse video of it being painted stroke by stroke on an empty canvas, in an oil-painting or watercolor style.

◆ The painting process becomes the video
Large brushes lay down the big shapes first, then finer and finer brushes add the details. Every stroke is recorded along with the moving brush.

◆ Twenty-two styles
Oil, Photoreal, Broken Color, Swirling Strokes, Pointillism, Watercolor, Ink Wash, Pastel, Colored Pencil, Pop, CMYK Layers, 16-Color Pixel Art, Spray Paint, Sand Art, Splatter, Light Painting, Light Dots, Fine Pencil, Pen & Ink, Black & Pink, Cables, Toy Bricks

◆ Fully on-device, privacy first

Each style thumbnail is a small painting of your own photo in that style.

◆ Please note
The painting order in the video is inferred from the finished look of the image you choose. Even with a real drawing or illustration, it does not reproduce how that picture was actually made.
