I'm sure it has about everything one should expect of editing software. However, the interface is a little junky and hard to manage, and it lacks support for working directly in the CMYK colorspace - a dealbreaker for me.

I will not be reviewing it in depth. All you need to know is that Affinity Photo is cheaper, prettier, and apparently far more robust. You'll get full service with your license and there are many excellent official tutorials on Vimeo wheras the obscurity of openCanvas 7 makes it a drag to even get into. Thus I can't recommend it as even a good launchpad for the aspiring artist. At the current pricepoint of $59.99 US, I don't see it a good value for anyone at all, really.
