ArtRage is an easy to use software which converts your desktop into canvas and lets you paint like a professionals painter. Yeah I mean it the same way. The software starts with a white interface which gives it a look and feel of canvas. Most of the painting tools like paintbrush, caramel , pallet knife are available which brings painting to life. We tried the free version of this tool which is just 3.5 MB and is fun to use it. I am not great painter but this image below is a trial. Don’t mind!

Features of ArtRage:

• Allows you to select type of canvas you want. Right from basic canvas to basic paper and Rough canvas to rough paper are available.
• You can save the canvas as presets to increase the reuse.
• Most of the painting tools like paint brush, caramel, pencil, air brush, sketch pen are available which makes this software to be unique.
• The amount of pressure on these tools can be adjusted to give the right affect of painting.
• Allows you to work on an image as background or directly edit image.
• Allows you to save in many other formats including psd format.
• One of the post unique thing which I found was Palette Knife . This allows you to evenly spread your colors near boundary to give an even look. You just have to be careful to use it in circular fashion.

Since I was using the free version of this software, Some of the sketching tools are disabled along with multiple layers. But this could be the cheapest software you can use to give your paintings or pictures the best affect. The complete featured software will cost you $25.
