Do you have a creative personality? Or maybe you’re just bored and want to kill time – no problem! Here are ten free websites you can use to make digital art.
Kleki is a simple site for digital painting. You can select different colors and choose the thickness of your brush’s lines. It’s also possible to use layers. This site is ideal for teens and up.
Texter is a tool for drawing with text instead of plain lines. This creates an interesting effect, like experimental poetry!
Mandala Gaba is a website for creating beautiful, symmetrical mandalas. You can use it to make flower-like art.
This website is exactly what it sounds like – a website where users can create digital paintings in the style of famous artist, Jackson Pollock. This is a much less messy alternative to physical drip painting!
Remember KidPix? From the 90s? This old art program has been recreated for the modern web. You can play around with the many brushes and effects. Warning: there are some loud sounds, so you may want to mute your computer while playing this.
Pixilart is both a tool and a community for making pixel art, the type of art used in old and retro-style video games. Users can upload their art for others to see. The community is moderated so that it is safe for children to use and it is also possible for teachers to make accounts.
WigglyPaint is a fun website for making “wiggly” drawings that can be saved as animated GIFs. The artwork has a limited color palette (white, black, pink, yellow and blue) so you will need to be creative when coloring!
Figuro is a website for 3D modelers. Do you want to make the type of models used in CGI animated movies and video games? You can do that with Figuro.
Bomomo is a strange website good for making strange art! It’s very experimental. Play around with the different tools to make abstract visuals.
If you’re looking to educate and entertain young children, there are many art games available to play at the PBS Kids website.
