Canvas

Node icon
Inputs

Creates a solid-color image at any resolution, useful as a background or starting point for procedural workflows.

The Canvas node generates a blank image filled with a single color. It’s the simplest input node: set a width, height, and fill color, and you get a clean starting point.

Use Canvas when you need a colored background to composite other images onto, or when building procedural textures that start from a flat base. Unlike Image In, Canvas doesn’t load from disk; it creates from scratch.

Output

WidthInteger
Default: 512 Range: 1–8192

HeightInteger
Default: 512 Range: 1–8192

Canvas height in pixels

Background fill color

  • Set the alpha to 0 to create a fully transparent canvas, which is useful as a base for compositing.
  • Wire a Canvas into Composite as the background layer, then overlay your subject on top.
  • Use Canvas to create solid color references for testing your pipeline before loading real assets.
