gimp is kind of a mess, something about being started as a university project many many years ago and being only halfheartedly maintained since. nothing wrong with that I love projects like that, but some people take offense. any way.... My understanding is that krita is a better painting tool. if you are drawing it will probably be the better experience. gimp is better at image manipulation(it is in the name) if you a modifying an already existing image it has better tools. Ether way it is not really the tool but what you do with it. there is this guy who does these amazing cut-away drawings for books, when asked what drawing program he uses the surprising answer was MS Paint. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PdKkR_lbLN0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PdKkR_lbLN0
