(PRWEB) February 14, 2006 -- Pixarra's January TwistedBrush art competition had a theme of portraits. Entries had to be portraits created using only the TwistedBrush digital painting software with the top three entries as choose by the judges being awarded a license for TwistedBrush. Choosing from the many outstanding portraits submitted the judges decided on the top three entries. First place is awarded to The Duke by Ral. The Duke has rich deep colors and excellent details. Second place is awarded to Marilyn by nOnO. Marilyn shows fresh sharp lines and colors and is vibrant portrait. Third place is awarded to Adam by Melanie. Adam is drawn in an old world style using digital charcoal and shows mastery of facial form. Congratulations to the winners.

Pixarra's TwistedBrush is known for its easy to use real artist tools. TwistedBrush is currently at version 8.1 and includes more than 1000 brushes that mimic real artist media, over 100 image filters, extensive color palettes and more than 200 brush effects. TwistedBrush since it's inception has included traditional artist tools, such as oils, acrylics, pastels, watercolors, airbrushes, pencils, charcoal, pens, chalk, markers and oil pastels. Under the covers is a high performance 64 bit brush engine that achieves smooth blends and responsive brush strokes. In addition to the above features and variety of brushes, traditional style masks, paper textures, scripting, tracing paper, photo cloning and gradients are some of the other features present.

Pixarra was founded with the idea of giving high quality software tools to the artist that are easy and fun to use. Over the years artist software has become more and more complex and has lost much of the creative freedom of laying color down on the paper or canvas. It is our goal to offer tools that give artists the tools to capture ideas quickly without spending hours or days studying a reference manual. Stated another way our motto is "Simplicity Without Sacrifice." TwistedBrush is our flagship product that delivers on this idea.
