I would highly recommend Degas Elite.  I use it constantly in combination with
PicSwitch to edit clipart for Pagestream.  It has a nice user interface, and 
does not crash.  I do not know if it works on the STE or the TT.  Now, I don't
really do much in color with it.  If you are interested in actually drawing,
you may wish to give Spectrum 512 a try.  Also, I think some really famous 
Amiga paint program is now produced for the ST (Deluxe Paint?).

Well, the Degas .PI? and .PC? formats are Atari standards.  Spectrum pics are
also easy to find software for.
