Sketcher was one of the earliest "natural media" raster graphics software applications.
It was released in the early 1990s by the US company Fractal Design Corporation for the Apple Macintosh.
This software simulated the behavior of various types of paper and art materials such as chalk, pastels, pencils and brushes.
Likewise, Sketcher sold for a lower price than Painter ($99 vs. $299) Following Sketcher, Fractal Design added color support, new features, modified the interface somewhat and released Dabbler.
