I would suggest the starter edition of Art Rage 2:
http://www.ambientdesign.com/artragedown.html. This painting program allows
one to draw/paint with digital chalk, crayons, pencil, oil paint etc. The
best part is that you can upload a digital photo directly to the art rage
document or use the doc as digital tracing paper. The tools can use any
color one chooses or if you check a certain option, will pick up the colors
from the photo.
The other program that I don't see on your list is Scratch:
http://scratch.mit.edu/. And, here are lists of open source Mac software:
http://www.opensourcemac.org/,http://www.myosxfreeware.com/, and
http://web.mac.com/simon_elliott/simon_elliott%40mac.com/Software.html.
Hope this helps,
