basic GIMP manipulation

I am not sure if I just ask a question to this email address or not. So here goes.
I downloaded GIMP for a little more than basic drawing tools. I need things like a mesh tool and a point manipulator tool along with primarily a basic shapes tool. Does GIMP have these features? If so where can I find help with the mentioned tools. If GIMP does not have these features does anyone know of a free drawing program that does? Thank You.

GIMP is a painting and graphics editing program, not so much a drawing program.

For sketches with a pencil, e.g. using a graphics tablet, try krita or mypaint.

For illustrations with shapes and lines you can move around, try inkscape.

For drawings of 3d objects there is also Blender.

Most GNU/Linux distributions will include these programs, or will make them available via their package manager.
