About Sandpainting
Sandpainting is a meditative sand-drawing toy. Push sand around with your finger to carve a relief, and real-time lighting does the rest: ridges catch the sun, grooves fall into shadow, and the whole surface sparkles the way real sand does.
Draw fast for broad sweeps, slow for deep carves. Let your drawing settle like real sand. Start fresh on calm ground, wind-swept dunes, or a raked zen garden.
Beyond natural sand, depth colorings transform your relief: Painted rainbow strata, Nebula, Candy pastels, Aurora, Caustics, and Sumi-e ink.
Share your sand paintings as images with one tap.
This is the first Android release, ported from iOS where more materials (marble, oak, copper with living patina, slate etching) and photo-to-relief import are already live - they are on their way here.

What’s new
Version 1.0 · Updated September 28, 2026
First release. Push sand into a relief with your finger and watch the ridges catch the light. Set the time of day and the sun's direction to relight your drawing, tilt to let the sand drift downhill, or shake to smooth it away. Import a photo to turn it into sand.
