Looking for Art Software
I’m searching for a Windows painting program from the mid-2000s featuring realistic, museum-supported brushes. Any clues on its name or background?
I recall using a program back in the mid-2000s that might be what you’re looking for. It was developed by Microsoft Research and was known as Fresh Paint. I used Fresh Paint during that period and appreciated its realistic brush simulation, which made it a popular choice in educational settings. The brushes and tools had a level of detail that really mimicked traditional painting. It was quite intuitive, making it a go-to for schools trying to introduce realistic art tools without getting into overly complex professional software.
