Available Drawing Tools

✏️ Pencil Tool

Hard-edged, crisp raster marks. Perfect for detailed linework, blueprints, character contours, and geometric sketching.

Feathered, anti-aliased strokes with pressure sensitivity and opacity falloff. Ideal for shading, watercolor washes, and atmospheric gradients.

Step-by-Step Walkthrough

Step 1: Open varnam.fun & Sign In

Navigate to varnam.fun on any desktop or tablet browser. Click "Start Drawing" to sign in with your Google account. No separate registration is required.

💡 Pro-Tip: Allow browser popups if prompted for Google Authentication.

Step 2: Create a Room or Enter an Invite Code

Click "Create New Room" to receive an invite code (e.g. blue-fox-42), or type your partner’s code into the Join field and press Enter.

💡 Pro-Tip: You can also copy the URL directly from your browser bar — it contains your room code automatically.

Step 3: Coordinate Roles and Canvas Zones

You will see a vertical dividing line down the middle of the canvas. You draw on your half; your partner draws on theirs. Real-time cursor labels show where each artist is sketching.

Step 4: Screenshot & Save Your Art

Because rooms are ephemeral, take a screenshot of your finished piece before closing the tab (Win+Shift+S on Windows or ⌘+Shift+4 on Mac).
