Digital Design-Paint.NET

Digital media is taking the art world by storm.  Being literate in computer programs is a skill that gives students an edge in school and in future careers.  Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Illustrator are the two most popular programs in the graphic design world.  These are wonderful programs that can be used for simple photo editing to advanced digital designing; however, they carry a hefty price tag!Paint.NET is a free program similar to Adobe Photoshop. You can use drawing tools, gradients, layers, and effects filters to make exciting original artwork. Bring photos into Paint.NET to adjust the brightness and contrast of a picture or manipulate the image into an abstract design. This program is great for intermediate students and is suitable for adults. Below is the link for the free download.
