Many of you like me may want to try your hands on painting on your computer - a painting which will look real like. Greenfish Painter will help you to do so and it comes absolutely free. It provides you with a virtual canvas where you can freely paint to obtain a texture that looks like real painting. To help you paint it provides you with virtual brushes, calligraphic pen, charcoal and chalk - you can customize them according to size, roundness, sharpness, density, flow, or angle to suit your taste.
On the negative, it is a little bit unfriendly to edit color. It takes a while to get around creating a brush color exactly as you want but with some patience and playing around you can create a really amazing mix of color. It would have been more desirable to edit color as a palette and with pin point precision.
On the whole, it is amazing software for all those who want to try their hand on real like painting on computer. This is cool for playing around a little bit and it comes as a portable file only so you don’t have to worry about installing and then uninstalling it. And if you are looking for more advanced software (to create a professional painting) which gives you more options for canvas and design tools alike - you should look into ArtRage (costs $25 only to use it with full features otherwise the basic version is free to download).
