Make a Painter Essentials for Android

I think it would be great if Painter Essentials were made for Android phones. That way people with drawing/painting tablets can take the tablets anywhere and still be able to use Painter Essentials.

Multiple dabs for a single brush

I think it would be nice to be able to use a list of dabs (ideally with customizable chance of each being used) instead of a single one. It would be especially useful for painterly brushes or brushes meant to fill in parts of the background rather...
