PaintMix — Paint Mixing Studio

ee a color you love? PaintMix turns it into paint on your palette — or the right pencil in your hand. SUBJECT — Load any photo, rotate and crop it, and pick any pixel with the crosshair: a named color match with a ΔE accuracy score, ready to mix. PALETTE — Build the palette before you touch a brush: the fewest tubes that can mix your picture's shapes, chosen from YOUR paints. See how much of each to squeeze out (blob area = amount), then a mixing chart for every shape. Save palettes by name — one for portraits, one for landscapes — or photograph the paint already on your desk and mix from those exact colors. PAINT — Your reference reduced to flat values or colors, ready to block in. A transfer grid, pinch-zoom, and touch any shape to find its color. Then photograph your actual canvas, line up its drawn grid, and get an honest cell-by-cell review: "B2 — too warm, a touch light." Lighting is absorbed first, and unpainted canvas is never counted against you. MIX — Real recipes with sliders that always total 100 and a live ΔE readout. Recipes come from your laid-out palette; when it can't reach a color, PaintMix suggests the one tube from your library that closes the gap. PENCILS & MARKERS — Flip one switch and the studio changes: closest pencil matches, two-color layering in the right order (lighter first), and pressure guidance — a pencil held lightly is a tint of itself. Colored-pencil and marker ranges included. MY LIBRARY — Mark the tubes, pencils, and markers you own; everything draws from your shelf, not a catalog. 13,000+ colors across 130 real product lines — Winsor & Newton, Golden, Liquitex, Schmincke, Daniel Smith, Prismacolor, Faber-Castell, Copic, Ohuhu and more — plus custom colors for anything we missed. SAVE — Keep the mixes and palettes that worked; reload them intact. Built on real color science: CIEDE2000 difference, spectral Kubelka-Munk mixing (blue + yellow makes green, like actual paint), and Display P3 sampling.
