Replacement for Lineform?

Hi. I use a vector drawing app called Lineform that still (thankfully) 
works under Mavericks. But its developer no longer supports the program.

I still use Lineform because it allows me to draw with "artistic 
strokes." Those strokes take into account the pressure of my graphics 
tablet and I can therefore create art with lines of varying width. I 
find drawings with artistic strokes look more natural and artistic. 
Again, these are vector drawings, not bitmap.

I've been waiting for another vector drawing program to come along with 
features similar to "artistic strokes," but so far I haven't found one. 
Other than Illustrator, which I think has something similar, but 
Illustrator is overkill and too expensive for my needs.

However, I'm posting here in case there is such a program with a 
feature similar to artistic strokes, and I've just not heard of it. I 
was fishing around in the Mac App Store but there are many apps in the 
Graphics and Design category so I thought I'd post here.

So, does anyone know if an app exists with a feature similar to 
artistic strokes?

Thanks.
