My version of the character Ada from "Ada & Zangemann", a Creative Commons license (BY-SA) book for children and a funny story about Free/Libre and Open-Source. It's written by Matthias Kirschner and illustrated by Sandra Brandstätter. It is great to see new characters in the Free Culture, especially because Ada is so cool. 💜
You can find it printed in English, French, German, Italian → https://fsfe.org/activities/ada-zangemann/

For those who can't afford commercial software, and for those who want full flexibility and extensibility and future-proofing the ability to open their own art work years from now, there's free open source software:

* #Krita: replaces Adobe Photoshop for editing and painting; https://krita.org/

* #Inkscape: multi-page, replaces Adobe Illustrator and Adobe InDesign; great for scientific figures and posters; https://inkscape.org/

* #Gimp: image editor, with layers and transparencies; replaces Adobe Photoshop; https://www.gimp.org/

* #MyPaint: just for painting; https://mypaint.app/

* #FijiSc: for image processing and image analysis, with conventional computer vision techniques and also machine learning. Handles multi-dimensional bioimagery. https://fiji.sc

* #Blender: for 3D animation and video editing; https://blender.org

* #ffmpeg: command-line based video editing; see this page https://ffmpeg.lav.io/ for testing out commands.

I don't use anything else: there's no need. And all of the above are extensively documented.
