Frequently Asked Questions
Is my photo uploaded to a server?
No. The sketch is made in your browser, so your photo stays on your device.
How does it work?
The tool blends a gray version of your photo with a blurred, inverted copy, which is the classic way to fake a pencil drawing.
What does the detail slider do?
It changes how soft or sharp the lines are, so you can go from light and delicate to bold and defined.
What photos work best?
Portraits, pets, and clear subjects with good contrast give the nicest sketches.
Is the result black and white?
Yes, it looks like a graphite pencil drawing on light paper.
Is it free?
Yes, with no sign-up.
