## What is Barely Drawn?

Hand us a photo and pick a look. We'll draw it. Roughly. Anime, cartoon, watercolor, sketch, pop art and lots more. We draw. ‘Well’ is extra.

Pick a look:
• Comics & anime — retro anime, full-color comic, bold ink lines
• Paint & paper — soft watercolor, thick oil paint, wax crayon, torn-paper collage, folded paper, paper quilling
• Craft & 3D — squishy clay, cozy yarn, a tiny diorama, chunky retro 3D game
• Print & pattern — pop art, risograph, woodcut, blueprint, stained glass, tile mosaic, die-cut sticker
• Doodles & sketches — wonderfully wonky doodles, pen sketch, black marker, pixel art

Pick a photo, pick a style, finish a short ad, and we start drawing. Flip through big style cards, or open the grid to see every look at once. Every drawing comes out a little different, so hand us the same photo again. Sometimes we get lucky. Save the good ones, or send a link to a friend.

You'll need to finish a rewarded ad before we draw. Your photo isn't sent until the ad is over.

Your photo is sent to an external AI service to make the drawing. The app doesn't separately store your photo or result.
