About this Mod

SimpleArt is a vanilla-friendly Fabric mod for Minecraft 1.21 that introduces a fully functional painting system. Forget about complicated map-art techniques — just craft a canvas, place it on a wall, and start drawing!

Key Features

Custom 128x128 Canvas: A high-resolution drawing area that perfectly fits the Minecraft aesthetic.

Powerful Drawing UI:

Palette: 31 vibrant colors + a dedicated eraser tool.

Dynamic Brush: Change your brush size on the fly using the mouse wheel.

Smooth Lines: Built-in Bresenham algorithm ensures your strokes are continuous, even with fast mouse movements.

Quality of Life Tools:

Undo System (Ctrl+Z): Made a mistake? Quickly undo your last 20 actions.

Cloning: Need a copy? Use a Crafting Table to clone your artwork (1 Painted Canvas + 1 Empty Canvas).

Advanced Data Storage: Using the new 1.21 Data Components, each painting stores its pixels, title, description, and the author's name directly in the item.

How to Get Started

  • Crafting: Combine Sticks and Wool to create an empty Canvas.
    
  • Drawing: Place the Canvas on any wall and Right-Click to open the editor.
    
  • Saving: When finished, press Esc to name your masterpiece and add a description.
    
  • Displaying: Once saved, your art is visible to everyone on the server!
