MyPaint is a fast and easy open-source graphics application for digital painters. It lets you focus on the art instead of the program. You work on your canvas with minimum distractions, bringing up the interface only when you need it.
MyPaint Features

* exists for several platforms
* supports pressure sensitive graphics tablets
* extensive brush creation and configuration options
* unlimited canvas (you never have to resize)
* basic layer support

MyPaint comes with a large brush collection including charcoal and ink to emulate real media, but the highly configurable brush engine allows you to experiment with your own brushes and with not-quite-natural painting.

Install mypaint in ubuntu karmic

Open the terminal and run the following command

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:kang-bundo/ppa

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install mypaint

For ubuntu 10.04 users run the following command from your terminal

    For those getting:
    (..) ImportError: No module named google.protobuf

    Installing “python-protobuf” seems to do the trick.
