My whole life is a lie.

I've always believed myself to be moderately bright. My IQ easily achieves double figures, and I can cross the road (usually) without being splurged under a truck.
    So, I thought, now that I've finally got Windows 10 I'll take advantage of KRITA, an alternative to GIMP but a lot more powerful.
    That's where the problems began. The learning curve on that particular piece of software is probably going to take longer than I have left on this planet. Don't get me wrong; it is a superb piece of software; very powerful and full of gizmos and gimmickry that I'd probably find useful if I had another fifty years to live.
    So I've gone back to GIMP. I like it and have been using it for a decade(ish). I've come up with this, Chet, a character from my Old Geezers trilogy. I'll do the other two next.

    I've scoured the net for an another painting app, and as I have a few quid at the moment, if anyone knows of a cheap alternative except Photoshop for me to try, I'd love to hear about it.
    This large font isn't just another symptom of my advanced decrepitude, but Windows 10 (spit) forces me to use it as the normal font is now sub-microscopic.
