Serious about the craft of painting? So are we.
With a streamlined UI, all your hotkeys ready to go, and new
features to speed up your workflow, the only thing Flatbrush won’t
help you with is... drawing hands.
Features built with artists, for artists
Unique Color Dynamics
Create painterly strokes without the lag of a mixer brush.
Cross Axis Jitter mimics partially mixed traditional paint
by adding variation to individual brush stamps.
Multi-Layer Liquify
Liquify multiple layers anywhere in your file without
merging!
All Flatbrush adjustments (Curves, Levels, HSB) support
multi-layer editing... and so does our transform tool.
Pinned Brush Settings
Pin frequently used brush settings to your sidebar. Love color variation? Make sure it's always available.
Quick Layer Select
Right Click to quickly select layers under the cursor. No more digging around in the layers panel!
We’ve got the basics, too...
Import your PSD files and brushes. And if Flatbrush isn't for you... eject right back to PSD.

Apply for early access
Flatbrush is free while in alpha, and we're looking for more illustrators, concept artists, and visual development artists to join the white glove test group.
You'll have direct access to the development team, and they want your feedback! If you’ve ever wanted more of a say in how your painting tool works, now is the time to sign up.
Available for Windows & macOS
ABOUT US
Flatbrush is built by Ryan and Jamie! We have more than a decade of experience building creative tools for professionals. Giant file sizes, we gotchu!
Ryan is a lifetime hobbyist painter and is married to a professional illustrator, Jessica! She was our first Flatbrush user and she loves ordering us to build whatever features she wants.
We plan to keep Flatbrush indie forever, so we can prioritize the quality of our app instead of being beholden to shareholders. And you'll never have to worry about generative AI features being added to Flatbrush. In this household we barf on AI art! BARF!! Thanks for giving our app a try! We've poured a lot of love into it.
