Basic drawing tools for .NET application

I need a control that allows loading a picture, performing some basic drawing tasks with it (including adding text, pencil, oval, horizontal and diagonal lines), and exporting it as bitmap. Anything like that available?

Thanks

I've made my own control based on Mouse_Down, Mouse_Up, and Mouse_Move events of PictureBox.

Image is a good container for this task:

// Load the image from an existing file
using (var img = Image.FromFile("test.png"))
using (var g = Graphics.FromImage(img))
{
    // Scratch on it
    g.DrawLine(new Pen(Color.Red, 10), new Point(0, 0), new Point(100, 100));
    g.DrawEllipse(new Pen(Brushes.Black), 10, 10, 100, 100);
    g.DrawRectangle(new Pen(Brushes.Red), 30, 30, 40, 40);

    // Save to a new file
    img.Save("test2.png");
}
