Colouring in #14

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I'd like to make colour ansi art for terminal applications.

Describe the solution you'd like

I'd like to be able to paint in foreground and background colours that use ansi escape sequences to render in a terminal. Something like a paint program for pixel art would be ideal. I believe applying foreground and background colours should not affect underlying text. but perhaps having four tools: "text", "foreground", "background", and "brush" where brush sets all three at once would be a good solution.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Not sure if there are other colour encodings relevant to text files, not everyone is going to be making graphics for colour terminals. there are also 256 colour terminal escape sequences, but I like the way the 16 colour escape sequences get themed in terminal emulators.

Additional context

here are a list of color codes with their colors and what they set the color for.
