You could download a free digital art program called GIMP. You can Google it and it will pop up.


There is also a $50 program called Paint Tool SAI and it is really great! I bought it and it makes really smooth lines and it is really fun to use all the tools it has.


If you can then buying Photoshop would be a good idea, but there are much cheaper programs that work just as well :]
