Microsoft Paint

Basics

• Microsoft Paint (aka MSPAINT) is one of the oldest Microsoft applications available on Microsoft Windows.

Summary

It's still a relatively primitive application. And although some people do use it to create drawings or paintings there are far better options out there. MSPAINT is still useful though as a tool to do quick edits of images.

The two pressure-sensitive brushes are:

- Watercolor

- Oil
