Adafruit Neopixel lib - fading takes a long time
I use WS2812FX library for controlling neopixels, and it performs very fast transitions. I never use the amount of LEDs that you are using, but I would suggest you give it a try. It is easy to customize as well. https://github.com/kitesurfer1404/WS2812FX

is there a ready-made light show firmware for PCB-doodling?
If you use LEDs like the WS2812 (RGB LEDs) you can use the WS2812FX library https://github.com/kitesurfer1404/WS2812FX and an Arduino nano to quickly make something with fancy led patterns. That is what I used to quickly (few minutes) create a prototype with fancy LED patterns. The library comes with many standard patterns and it only takes a few lines of code to get started. No buttons, buzzers or ordinary LEDs though.

Could FastLED do this, and how?
The library ws2812fx has a ton of wonderful effects similar to this.

[OC] My Aang and Zuko Painting on glass. Thinking of putting colored LED lights on the wall behind the frame, do you guys think it would be a good idea?
For libraries, I don't recommend the Adafruit neopixel lib. I think this is better, easier to use, more robust, and faster in ease of use and code execution. https://github.com/kitesurfer1404/WS2812FX
