Ask Corel, or alternatively look for a free alternative, like gimp.

pixel32, i don't know, i feel the guy is not very motivated for a linux port.

gimp, but there is also a pletora of drawing stuff, like sodipodi for vector
stuff, or hnome or kde paint or whatever it is. I believe openoffice draw can
also be used, but really i am no expert on drawing stuff. gimp is more like
photoshop than that other stuff though.

Pixel32 is already available for Linux. He got a Pegasos and he
ported to MorphOS, and Mac and LinuxPPC.

Ah, yes, last i heard, he ported to Linux x86, but didn't do a ppc build or
something stupid such, but then you are the expert on this.

Apparently a beta release was scheduled for MorphOS, and then once
any endian-issues were solved (PowerPC was the first bigendian
platform apparently) there would be releases for Linux/PPC and MacOS.

Obviously there's a little delay going on but it does seem to be
happening.
