I’m guessing a lot of people are going to say Illustrator or Inkscape. Are there any raster art programs?

    I found Krita easy to use with a mouse, they might still have a free trial going on - that’s what hooked me.

    I know you said raster, but what about working in vector and converting to raster? I found Affinity programs pretty streamlined and affordable for moving back and forth between styles.

      Krita is always free and open source, supported by donations and the community. It’s not a trial and it’s not time-limited.

        Thanks for the correction. It looks like buying through a platform/app store supports the developers. At that time (years ago) I got into it through a trial. I didn’t know it was free, but glad I supported them.
