Light Painter
Stop fighting lights.
Paint them.
The first Blender add-on that makes lighting feel like painting. Use brushes, gradients, selections, and layers — right in the viewport — to shape light exactly the way you see it.
Works with Cycles · Spot & Area lights
Traditional lighting in Blender feels indirect and frustrating: tweaking position, size, power, swapping gobo textures, adjusting everything over and over until get the mood right.
Light Painter changes everything. Paint with light directly on your scene — every stroke lands in the viewport in real time. Your lights become fully editable creative tools with layers, blend modes, and non-destructive control. Intuitive, expressive, fun.
01 — Brush Painting
Paint light like
you paint in Photoshop
Pick a brush, adjust size, hardness, strength, flow, and falloff — then paint straight into the viewport. Erase mode for quick fixes. Simple, responsive, and addictive.

02 — Gradient Painting
Gradient light,
endless creativity
Drag to cast beautiful linear or radial gradients onto your scene. Soft falloffs, dramatic vignettes, smooth color washes — stack them with blend modes for complex effects that would be nearly impossible with traditional lighting.

Drag to set the direction, switch between linear and radial. Combine them with different blend modes — the possibilities are truly endless.

04 — Layer System
Paint without
fear of mistakes
Create as many layers as you need and split your light into independent layers for full control. Reorder, hide, change blend modes, transform, or delete any layer anytime. Nothing is baked. Just like Photoshop, now for light.

Each layer works on its own. Put broad shapes on one layer, details on another. Undo per layer. Duplicate to A/B test. Toggle visibility to compare. Every layer has its own blend mode, offset, rotation, and scale.

Already have a gobo? Drop it in.
Drop any PNG, JPG, or EXR gobo directly onto your light. It instantly becomes a fully editable layer — ready for painting, erasing, masking or animating.
