That's the first question that occurred to me so I web-searched.
Seems it is faster and has a broader API. I sort of expected that Raph Levien(1) might have contributed or that Cairo would be part of the base of Skia. But apparently not.

I did not write Cairo, I wrote libart, and that was a long time ago. I'm good friends with several of the Skia authors, but don't actively work on it myself.
