I've done remarkably well with Inkscape. Ok it runs on X11, it has a learning curve, but it's very featured and even I, terrible at anything artistic, have managed to grind out some decent graphics with it, certainly good enough for buttons and icons.

The idea is to create a 512x512 pixel icns icon for my app to use if I ever succeed of getting it on the App Store.
