Pick a color from any photo and paint what you see. PaintMixLab turns any photo into oil & acrylic paint mixing recipes written in the tubes on your table. Photograph a landscape, a portrait, a swatch in a magazine, tap the color you want, and get two or three tubes in whole parts, like 4 : 2 : 1, with a rating of how close the mix will be. HOW IT WORKS 1. Choose your paint set (or build your own from the tubes you own). 2. Photograph the color, or open a photo from your library. 3. Tap the spot you want to match. 4. Mix the recipe, check it against the swatch, paint. WHY THE RECIPES WORK Screens mix light. Paint mixes pigment, and the two behave nothing alike: blue and yellow light make grey, blue and yellow paint make green. PaintMixLab models how each pigment absorbs and scatters light across 38 bands of the spectrum, fitted to real painted swatches rather than guessed from a hex code. Every brand is calibrated separately, which is why a Winton recipe and a Gamblin recipe for the same color are different, and why both come out the color they say they will. PAINT SETS INCLUDED Gamblin 1980, Gamblin Artist Grade, Winsor & Newton Winton, Magicfly 40, Castle Arts 24, Mont Marte 24, Arteza 24, Ohuhu 24, Bob Ross 14, US Art Supply 36, and My Tubes for a custom palette. 379 paints in all, from 14-color starter boxes to 93-color artist ranges. WHAT YOU GET - Color sampling from any photo, done on your phone - Recipes in whole parts with a match rating (Excellent, Very close, Close, Approximate) - Two-tube and three-tube options, with and without white - Blocks: the dominant color masses of your photo, largest first, so you can block in the big shapes before the detail - Style studies after Van Gogh, Monet, Turner and other masters, computed on your phone, no AI - Calibrate your own tubes: paint a swatch, photograph it, and the model adjusts to your paint and your white - Save mixes to each photo and keep projects for the paintings you are working on - Calibrations sync across your devices, and any project you choose to keep in your cloud does too MIX THE COLORS PAINTERS ASK ABOUT Sage green, Payne's grey, light and medium skin tones, teal, olive, dusty rose, lavender, navy, forest green, terracotta, mustard, turquoise, sky blue, peach, cream, charcoal, neutral grey, mauve, moss, coral, rust, sand, maroon, brown, and anything else you can photograph. No more muddy greens or chalky flesh tones from guessing. WHO IT IS FOR Oil and acrylic painters first, and gouache painters use it too. Beginners get a recipe instead of a guess; experienced painters get a calibrated starting point for the colors that are hard to see, like greyed greens and shadow skin tones. YOUR PHOTOS STAY ON YOUR DEVICE BY DEFAULT Color sampling happens on your phone and the picture stays there. If you turn on Keep a copy in your cloud for a project, that project's photo and swatches are stored privately against your account so you can open it on another device. Switch it off or delete the project and the copy is removed. We never view, share or use your photos for anything else. HONEST ABOUT ITS LIMITS A recipe is a starting point, not a guarantee. Tube batches vary, paint thickness changes a color, and the light you paint under is not the light you photographed in. PaintMixLab gets you close enough that the last adjustment is a small one.
