Not the solution you are looking for, but I have run MSPAINT under WINE emulation for years.
Simple but satisfactory.
;JOOP!

The closest thing to MS Paint is this: https://paintbrush.sourceforge.io/
I've used it ... it works fairly well but crashes on occasion.
If you don't like it, GIMP is a far more advanced editor (also free).

wine = wine is not an emulator
It’s an installable Win library with a GUI settings front end. I used it many years ago on various Linux distros and found it unsatisfactory back then. I’m sure it’s improved, but you’ll be better off sticking with native softwares.
NO. I don't know parallels, but IF you can run MSWindows on it, try MSPAINT from there.

I'm not using WINE as is: I bought CROSSOVER which packages WINE inside. Much better.
;JOOP!
Yes, very familiar with crossover. Glad it works well for you. No need for it here. I multi-boot and use VMWare. These are better solutions for my particular needs.
Nothing against WINE/CROSOVER, it’s just that native code is always better where possible.
Scares .... ? I tried it on HS 10.13.5 and it showed no tools or menus at all.
There is a score of tiny programs around that do not work any more.
;JOOP!
