My apologies if this post goes against the rules (Mods, please delete if so), but can anyone recommend to me a good free digital art software I can download? So far someone has mentioned Krita, but I was wondering what people here found to be the best? I am familiar with Illustrator, so I have an understanding of how vector graphics editor and design software works, I've just been out of the art game for ages, so I have no idea what's out there.

Thank you!

Depends on your needs and goals. Traditional art etc Krita is solid. Runs everywhere. Windows Mac Linux Android and iOS. There are some more focused on pixel art like pixieditor. And still more focused on vector art like inkscape.

Blender also has grease pencil, and pressure sensitive pen support for their sculpting tools if I recall correctly.
