Google for:
  gimp teal pixen seashore paintbrush

Separately, qualify each name with "paint" or "mac os x" to avoid getting
the common interpretation of each word.  Given together or in pairs, you'll
get comparative articles.

If you want a more "rendery" look for icons, search Apple downloads for 3D
freeware, shareware, demos, etc.:
  <http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/>

Or do a search for "paint" or "render" on a site like versiontracker.

For broad questions like this, google is your friend.  For example, try:
  ms paint for mac os x
