Tux Paint comes with a collection of starter images that include coloring books style images, photographic scenes that can be used as a background, vector graphics, and a number of KidPix templates.
Within the user interface, all the drawing tools are organized into quickly accessible toolbars: simply select the instrument you want to use from the left side panel, and customize its output from the toolbar placed on the right side.
The app comes with support for paint brushes, rubber stamps, line/shape/text/label tools, erase, and undo. Moreover, you will have access to a large collection of special effects.

What's new in Tux Paint 0.9.32:
- Introduces Perspective, Orthographic, and Oblique projection tools; Centered Trochoid creation tools
- 1-Point, 2-Point, and 3-Point Perspective:
- Three pairs of new tools provide ways to easily sketch drawings in Tux Paint using 1-, 2-, and 3-point perspective, as well as adjusting the different perspectives' vanishing points. The drawing tools are similar to the Line tool, except only certain angles are possible, based on the position of the line relative to the vanishing points. For example, in 1- and 2-point perspective, lines may be drawn vertically and horizontally, but diagonally they must always be angled toward or away from the vanishing point(s).
