Good graphic editor software. A quote from Wikipedia:

Painter was initially developed for the Macintosh system by Mark Zimmer and Tom Hedges, founders of the Fractal Design Corporation.
Zimmer and Hedges had previously developed ImageStudio and ColorStudio, both image-editing applications, for Letraset.
John Derry joined Zimmer and Hedges during the release cycle of Painter 1.2.
Derry had gained previous paint software expertise at Time Arts, a developer of the early desktop-based paint applications Lumena and Oasis.

Compatibility:

68k will run OK on PPC Mac. For best results use with a graphics tablet.
