Ownbrush

Ownbrush is an interesting and easy to understand drawing application that you can use to create abstract paintings and designs, saving them to JPG format.

The main feature of this simple tool is the ability to customize the brushes you work with. It enables you to use several 'Layers' and colors, in combination with the various 'Blends', namely 'Multiply', 'Overlay', 'Add' and 'Difference'. These allow you to obtain unique visual effects, that you can preview in the left window.

The 'Filters', specifically 'Glow', 'Bevel' and 'Shadow', enable you to add another dimension to you designs. Similarly, the possibility of using specific colors for each one allows you to easily create original drawings. By mixing the numerous 'Layers', 'Blends' and 'Filters, you can generate any brush shape that crosses your mind, with colorful effects and interesting results.

When you are fully satisfied with a brush, you can press the 'Use It' button, which will open the drawing pad. Here, you can start designing original artwork with your customized brush. Ownbrush offers a 'Mono' setting, but it also provides you with a 'Symmetrical' mode, so you can create perfectly mirrored paintings with ease.

Each design you create can be saved to a JPG image file, allowing you to share it with friends, post it online for others to enjoy or use it as a desktop background.

The application enables you to create some interesting effects, but it offers a limited number of options. For instance, you cannot change the background color and you do not have the possibility of using more than one brush at the same time.

Ownbrush is a fun piece of software that lets your inner artist shine, by providing you with the ability to create and customize your drawing brushes, then using them to generate intricate designs.
