Observations:
Of the applications in this list, I’ve spent the least amount of time with Rebelle. Version 1.5 was just released last week. But at first glance, there’s a lot to like here. The software takes advantage of the Surface Pro 4’s touch features and the clean accessible UI is dynamically scaleable.
Although I’m not a painter by any stretch of the imagination, I look forward to diving deeper into this program.
