Welcome
This is the ultimate art package for people wanting to
start digital art, or those looking to extend their skills
It doesn’t matter whether or not you have natural artistic ability – with
Corel Painter on your side you can create luscious pieces of digital art.
This title will show you exactly what can be achieved with the program.
We have dedicated tutorials on turning photos into art, where the
brushes take colour and shape information from the source photo. If
you’re more con�½ident, use the tutorials that begin with a line drawing
and see how to apply layers of digital paint to build up a masterpiece.
We also delve into the arena of traditional art. The Paint Like tutorials
show how to re-create an artist’s style in Corel Painter, from Van Gogh’s
Sun�½lowers to the iconic work of Edward Hopper. Our Art Skills section
brings together some fundamental techniques for creating better
artwork, looking at topics such as composition, perspective and using
light and shade. You’ll �½ind tutorial source �½iles on the disc along with a
90-day trial of Corel Painter X, so load them up, pick a tutorial and have
a go!
Happy painting!
