Reviewed by: CNET Staff
The program formerly known as Pixarra Sketchbook is a painter's playground, offering a full collection of realistic and natural brushes, as well as media such as watercolors, oils, acrylics, pastels, charcoal, pens, pencils, and markers. The installation is fast and painless. After launching TwistedBrush, you can choose from various brushes and brush effects before you start drawing. Stroke samples make the process of selecting much easier. The program borrows features and functionality from many image-editing packages, which makes it seem like familiar territory. Not only does it include traditional effects, such as rotation and flipping, it also provides filters similar to those found in Adobe software. Just be aware it consumes plenty of system resources and requires a powerful system to run smoothly. For the serious painter, TwistedBrush has one of the best brush engines around. For the home user and enthusiast, it's a creative tool that allows you to paint and play.Publisher's description

Version: TwistedBrush 14.4
"Packed with great brushes & effects!!!"
Pros: If you never liked painting or gave it a second thought this digital software will enthuse the pants offa you! It takes a minute to figure out how to get all you can out of it but it was well worth it being it has so many features, tons of filters & over hundreds of fantastic brushes to work with. It also allows beginners to 'trace' then paint over photos turning it into a real canvas painting! People will think you have real skills, lol. So much FUN!!!!!!
Cons: nothing to dislike about this great program!
