MyPaint is a simple, intuitive, versatile paint program. The software, which is designed specifically for use with graphic tablets, promises users an experience similar to drawing with a pen or brush.

MyPaint belongs to a category of paint programs that differs from the image processing concept used by software such as GIMP.
