Harmony
A browser sketchpad for creating procedural, textured drawings.
Harmony is a lightweight web drawing experiment built around procedural brush behavior rather than conventional paint tools. It lets users make expressive, generative-looking sketches directly in the browser, with effects that respond to strokes in unusual ways.
Why it stands out
- Focuses on algorithmic brush effects rather than standard paint-tool imitation.
- Runs immediately in the browser with no account or software setup.
- Useful as both a drawing toy and a small creative-coding reference point.
- Created by Mr.doob, a well-known web graphics developer associated with experimental browser-based visual tools.
Good to know
- It is a focused sketching tool, not a full image editor with layers, selection tools, or project management.
- The page provides very little built-in explanation, so users may need to discover brush behavior by experimenting.
- Best suited to quick creative output rather than polished production workflows.
Photos
Digital artists and creative coders can quickly prototype procedural brush aesthetics without installing a full graphics app. Make abstract textures, lines, and experimental sketches in a browser canvas. Explore how different brush algorithms change the feel of the same hand-drawn gesture. Create quick visual studies or playful doodles from any desktop browser.
Browser-based canvas drawing; multiple procedural brush styles; lightweight single-purpose interface; hosted as a public GitHub Pages project.
