I figured out the GIMP version by watching this. Follow these steps:

1. Open and select photo (layer 1.)

2. Click on "Layers." Choose "Duplicate Layer."

3. Click on "Colors." Go to "Hue Saturation." Reduce saturation to -100. (or B&W.)

4. Go to "Layer." Go to "Mask." Click on "Add Layer Mask."

5. Go to "Tools." Choose painbrush and size. Choose black square to reveal color and white square to cover it

6. Paint away!

7. Go to "Image." Choose "Flatten Image" to save. Have fun!
