About

Live Canvas is a small project by Ravi — a product designer who paints. Each painting in this gallery has a hidden second layer: an animation, a video, or a 3D form that appears when you view it through your phone's camera.

How it works

1. Scan the QR code near a painting, or tap the NFC tag if your phone supports it.
2. Open the link in Safari or Chrome (not in an in-app browser).
3. Allow camera access when prompted.
4. Point your phone at the painting. Stand about 30 cm away.

Tips for the best experience

• Bright, even lighting helps tracking.
• Glass or glare can confuse the camera — view from a slight angle.
• If the overlay doesn't appear after a few seconds, move the painting fully into frame.
