  1. What a great giveaway! I'd paint landscapes…I'm not sure I'd do it justice but the Pacific NW is gorgeous!

  2. I would love to try out my hand at this app! I'm thinking some paint by number-esqe paintings of florals and my littles. I'm really excited about this app and trying out the new windows 8 software!!

  3. Seriously cool! I have a nursery to decorate so I'd play around making something for the picture wall. I'm loving your abstract, but it'd be fun to try some kind of funky animal print perhaps?

  4. I LOVE painting, but hate the set up, clean up and drying process!! I have so many outfits I have ruined because i have gotten paint on them! I love doing abstract paintings with bright colors! Also, I am VERY interested in the Wet Paint app :)

  5. I would love to play with some of my favorite Master's works. Sounds like a great way to learn to paint!

  6. What a great giveaway! I love the idea of importing photos and using them as a guide. I have some pictures from a trip to Hawaii that would be amazing to experiment with.

  7. I love drawing portraits and have been contemplating getting a tablet for a while to do straight digital work. This would be perfect!

  8. This looks incredible! I've been wanting to reconnect with my childhood love of painting…portraits, landscapes, botanicals…everything!

  9. Seriously in love with this idea. Awesome giveaway, thanks for hosting. I'd definitely do some abstracts of my own and probably play around with imported pictures. Would love the oportunity – Pick me, random number generator, pick me!

  10. I would love to try some abstracts! Your demo also has me brainstorming about trying something similar with a portait i have of my father's mom.

    Thanks for such a great giveaway opportunity!

  11. I would definitely start experimenting with both capabilities, both importing as well as creating completely Fresh Paint images… I love the option to play with colors and "mediums" without wasting supplies!

  12. I would like to try many different things, but recreating old family portraits (like yours) would be my first project!

  14. Landscapes!!! Then, of course, I will copy your idea, and do the photo of my grandmother in an old fashioned nurse's uniform with some doughboy patients. Then, I want to try making some, and copying them in fabric. What a WONDERFUL invention!!!! Thank you for the chance to win the complete set up.

  15. I am a plant biologist (with a penchant for a pretty design aesthetic) so I would definitely use this app and tablet to make paintings of all the gorgeous plants I encounter in my research. I already try to press flowers whenever I can. But pressed flowers fade! This would be so much cooler!

  16. I would use the wet paint feature to jazz up some of my photos from my year in Thailand. I am thinking a banyan tree would be perfect under a coat of oils from the app. I'd also like to give some painting a go freehand.

  17. Wow, what an amazing giveaway. I've always been interested in learning more about using these types of paint programs and I would love the chance to play around with one. I'd probably start off with some landscapes, and abstract, but then I'd want to do portraits too! So many fun possibilities!

    This would be an awesome alternative.

  19. Everything! Photos, landscapes, etc. Would just be too much — especially giving the brush to my little nephews and printing their masterpieces!
