I think it's getting a bit too wordy, though -- and a bit imprecise.

"Free Software" vs "a free and open source program" -- the reason I put program
in here is that to be precise: we're not making software that can be used from other
application, but an application itself.

That duplicates free again: developed in the open belongs in the what, but that's
already part of free software/free and open source program, too. I'd also put the
cross-platform in the 'what' paragraph. The last paragraph should tell people
why we think they should choose it.
What:
Krita is a free and open source cross-platform application that offers an
end-to-end solution for creating digital art from scratch. Krita is optimized
for or frequent, prolonged and focused use.
For whom:
Explicitly supported fields are illustrations, concept art, matte painting,
textures, comics and animations.
What is the value:
Working together with artist, Krita is an application that supports
their actual needs and workflow.
I'm wondering, given all the work we're doing on psd integration and
svg integration: should we mention interoperability and open standards
here? Something like:
What is the value:
Developed together with artists, Krita is an application that supports
their actual needs and workflow. Krita supports open standards and
interoperates with other applications.
