ArtRage:

"ArtRage [is] the easy to use, stylish painting package that lets you get painting from the moment you open it up. You can paint with oils, sketch with pencils, sprinkle glitter, and more. You can paint with gold leaf, silver foil, and other metallic colors. You can even load in your photos as Tracing Images to help you recreate them as paintings. Each of the tools in ArtRage is designed to work like its real world counterpart (minus the smell of paint thinners, and that piece of glitter you just can't get out of the carpet). Thick paint smears and blends, pencils and chalks smudge, and markers work just like they do in the real world. Many of the tools can be adjusted to give different effects. ArtRage makes it easy to recreate photos or other images using its paint tools. When you load a Tracing Image the original is projected on to your canvas so that you can use it as a guide while you sketch and paint.
Guide Comments:

ArtRage started out as a free program for Windows only, but as new features were added and a Mac version was developed, it was offered for sale--very reasonably at US$19.95. The Free Edition lives on however, with some full version features disabled."

DON'T spend money on Mac Software; once you have the machine and the operating system
pretty well everything else should be FREE.
