# easel

> Describe it. It paints it. You write a description; easel produces a finished
> picture file, full-size, in whatever art style you name — not a filter dropped over
> a photo, a picture built from your words. It runs on hardware in the house: no part
> of a render is sent to a cloud service, and nothing leaves on the way out. Eight
> styles come off the one pipeline — photoreal, oil painting, low-poly 3D, stained
> glass, pixel art, claymation, charcoal and gouache — and every picture on the page
> is real output you can open full-size. Every picture easel makes carries the recipe
> that made it: the full render graph, each step and setting in the order it ran,
> written into the file's own metadata, so anyone holding the picture can read how it
> was produced. It draws RealKeep's world art — each scene rendered from a description
> the moment the story needs one — and the seventy-picture design gallery.

## Where it shows up, and how it was chosen

- [the design gallery](https://design.strata2signal.com/gallery.html) — seventy finished renders off this pipeline, each carrying its recipe inside the file.
- [RealKeep](https://realkeep.strata2signal.com) — the living world whose scenes are rendered on demand.
- [the diffusion research bench](https://research.strata2signal.com/diffusion/index.html) — the public bench the pipeline was chosen on: painter head-to-heads, step ladders, resolution ladders, cold-start costs, wins and losses both.
- [The whole family, mapped](https://strata2signal.com/family.html) · [the research index](https://research.strata2signal.com/llms.txt).
