I am looking at PostgreSql native geometry.
I am wondering if it can be used in conjunction with a basic drawing
package.
If so, is there a recommended drawing package to use? Are there any examples
of this type of use?

They could be used for simple GIS applications (e.g., storing
latitude/longitude as points), although PostGIS would be more
suitable for non-trivial needs. Are you asking about PostgreSQL's
native geometry types specifically or are you also interested in
how PostGIS is being used? If the latter then see their case
studies:
