Sara Tepes Continues Her Series On The Free Painting Program By Taking A Tour Of Krita’s Tools And Its Pared-back Workspace
-
Krita is one of the best free painting programs available and includes a great variety of tools and features. While Photoshop has features that can be useful from painting to photo retouching to photo manipulation, too many options create a tough learning curve for a digital painter.

Krita keeps its interface painter friendly with a clean style and minimal distractions. Tools are accessibly placed, and most of the window is dedicated to the canvas. Since Krita has such a gentle learning curve, it’s easy – and important – to familiarise yourself with its features before diving into the painting process.
