Where can I get a free art program that uses layers and tablet pressure?

I want one that doesnt go lighter with pressure, but goes bigger and smaller depending on the pressure.





can open canvas do that?Where can I get a free art program that uses layers and tablet pressure?
The one I would recommend is InkScape, which is an open-source version of Illustrator. Despite being unstable at the most recent version being 0.45, the thing works GREAT. It also adheres to SVG standards, if you need to publish things on the Internet as scalable graphics. It will also work even without a tablet. Only the Calligraphy tool supports tablet pressure.

Also, the GIMP,which is an open-source version of PhotoShop. Unlike PhotoShop, I find the GUI much easier to use, and they have many brushes and other tools that can do tablet pressure. It will also work if you don't have a tablet. The Ink tool can simulate a moving brush with varying thicknesses without tablet pressure.

SodiPodi will also work. Although I don't use it, this program was where InkScape comes from, and doesn't adhere to SVG standards.
