Harmony: HTML 5 Canvas Drawing Tool

An experiment to show what HTML, JS and CSS can do is this drawing expeiment with a great potential. With it’s unique brush styles you can produce some great-looking charcoal pencil style sketches, amongst other things.

A quote from the creator (Mr. Doob):

The whole thing is quite modular so I can keep adding more brush styles whenever I get inspired. During the process I found out that, for some reason (apparently lack of hardware acceleration), Firefox and Opera do not support context.globalCompositeOperation = ‘darker’. This was on the HTML5 spec before but got removed. Just so you know what I’m talking about, this is like the “multiply” blending in Photoshop. Webkit does support it tho. I hope they put it back on the specs and all browsers support it.

You better try it out if your browser supports HTML 5. When done, you can save your image if you want to…
