Krita

Krita (Swedish for crayon) is the digital painting and illustration software included based on the KDE platform and KOffice libraries. Designed as a digital painting and illustration suite, Krita is free software and distributed under GNU General Public License. It was released for the first time as a part of KOffice version 1.4.0, on June 21, 2005.

Krita's design emphasizes creating artwork from beginning to end as opposed to manipulating existing images, and as such has been influenced to an extent by software such as Corel Painter. Krita, however supports a very different feature set than the most comparable applications, for example Kirta developers included the ability to work with both bitmap and vector illustration on one hand, but deliberately choose to avoid high end photography plugins in favor of more painting / drawing specific features.
