If you can then you will probably not notice the death of Ms Paint Q4 2017.
If not you may never have used it
The replacement does 3D and is quite neat - avail on all versions of Win10.

Everone should mess around with art, music, boats. You don't have to be proficient it is good for the soul. Colors are like music you can play with them. Children know this but schools and kinfergartens tend to drum out anything that makes a mess. Brenda will confirm that jazz is just colored sound.

Have fun

There is a Bbc4 series about color on player 3 episodes. The blue one is my favorite.

I do agree this time with Rollo!
I am no artist with drawing/painting,but there are many arts I have dabbled with.
Music has been part of my life for over 70 years.Life would be very dull without it.

The colour and expression in music,whether classical or jazz make it as beautiful as can be.
I am a trained classical pianist and when introduced to jazz didn't like it much until I began to realise that the improvisations and colour were what the old masters used.

I love nature and the colours.I can't resist taking photos of the lovely sunsets we have here as I live on the coast,and sun setting over the sea is lovely.
