Pets & Portraits — draw your pet, and you too… if your pet doesn’t mind!
Upload a real photo and watch it get turned into a rough outline, then a detailed sketch, then a finished line drawing, right here in your browser. A faint 7×5 grid helps you place your drawing on paper. No server, no AI image generator — just image processing running on your device.
Your photo stays on this device — it's never uploaded anywhere.
Tip: a plain or simple background makes the clearest drawing — but a little garden or sofa in the picture can look lovely too.
Drag the picture to move it under the grid. The grid is never saved or printed — draw the same grid faintly on your drawing card and rub it out when you're done. Keep ears, tails and faces inside the dashed line: the mount covers the outer ¼ inch.
Finished your drawing on paper? Take a photo of it — straight on, in good light — and we'll show it framed, ready to save, print or send to family.
Drag the drawing to centre it in the frame.
Photograph your finished drawing — straight on, in good light — and Professor Glumpy will mark it against your photo, square by square, in red pen.
Drag the four orange dots onto the four corners of your drawing.
In the mount? Put the dots on the corners of the mount’s window. Not in the mount? Put them on the corners of the card.
Red circles show squares to look at again, and the red pen shows where the main lines in your photo go. Ticks mean that square is spot on.
This is a working proof of concept, not the finished app — the lines come from real edge-detection on your photo, run entirely in this browser.
