How each mark is laid down.
Press and hold the painting at any time to see the photo underneath it. Inkwalker repaints a photograph with simulated brush strokes you can watch being laid down. Each stroke is a small agent that carries momentum, hunts the dark parts of the picture, and wanders on the way, and a finished painting is thousands of them. No AI, no upload, no account.
The rail holds eighteen looks and nine groups of settings, fifty-four in all, and every one changes the painting as you move it. Sloppiness is the one that changes everything: down low the strokes comb along edges, up high they tangle and trail off into blank paper. Prints are re-simulated at export size, so an 8K save is genuinely sharper rather than enlarged.
The address bar carries the look and the seed, so the link you copy paints the same picture on someone else's screen.

The Original look is adapted from Paint by u111166 (2016), also CC BY-SA 3.0. It was rewritten from Processing to plain Canvas, given a seeded random source so results repeat, made resolution-independent for export, and folded in as one look among eighteen. Because that code is included here, the whole file carries the same license.
Everything else — the other seventeen looks, the edge-tangent flow renderer, the interface and the capture pipeline — is original work by Chris Pirillo, offered under those same terms.
The license covers the app. Pictures you make with it are yours, and it places no conditions on them. This is a plain-language summary and not legal advice.
