Paint

Filter

Paint directly on images with a freehand brush. Supports brush, eraser, eyedropper, and clone stamp tools.

The Paint node provides interactive freehand painting directly within the graph. Choose from Brush, Eraser, Eyedropper, and Clone Stamp tools. When connected to an image input, you paint over it; without an input, you get a blank canvas.

Output Mode controls whether you get the composited result (paint over image) or just the paint layer by itself, which is useful for creating overlays or corrections separately.

Usage Tips

Switch tools with keyboard shortcuts: B (Brush), E (Eraser), I (Eyedropper), C (Clone Stamp).
Use the Eyedropper tool to pick colors from the image before painting.
Paint Layer Only mode lets you create a separate correction layer for compositing.
Reduce brush hardness for soft, airbrushed strokes.
