As easy as pen and paper

With SketchBook, drawing and painting is as close to pencil, pen, marker, and brush as a digital tool can be. Use over 140 preset brushes, infinite layers, powerful drawing guides, and more.

It's quite intuitive, very painterly, and I tremendously enjoy it. SketchBook is powerful, comparable with Photoshop for digital artists.
