| | Photoshop and Corel Painter, Advantages to these software’s | | 2008-05-30 09:32:57 | | Let’s first look at Photoshop and the CS package and what it has to offer on advantages.The CS Advantage..The new Adobe Creative Suite combines Adobe's graphics applications and an efficient workflow that answers the needs of nearly every creative professional, from conceptualization to implementation, from print to Web. Whats great about this pack of programs is that not only do designers get one program at a time; rather, a whole suite of the latest versions of Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, and GoLive software.The Creative Suite is Adobe's attempt to bind the applications together. Now, Adobe's creative products use not only the same graphics engine but also the same type and color-management engines. Files that are created in one application can open easily in others with all their features intact. With a consistent user interface, moving from one application to another is easy.And holding it all together is the new file-management and version-tracking technology Version Cue. | | By: Corel Painter Resource blog | | |

This new version of the Painter series offers increased speed, stability, and performance and several new creative tools all suited for the digital artist in you.Speed has always been a factor in selecting a graphic program and with that fact in mind, Corel Painter X has been endowed with brushes that can go up to ten times faster than version VIII.

| | What is digital art? The future of digital art, and some corel painter tips. | | 2008-02-11 08:34:28 | | I originally wanted to write an article on the definition of digital art, and now I finally made myself write it. Digital art is art created with the help of a computer. This can be done in many different ways. A picture can be modelled in 3D and rendered, or art painted in the traditional sense with the aid of a tablet, or even a simple mouse (I really hope everyone reading this are sitting on a tablet though hehe). Pictures can also entirely be generated of the computer like with a program called “Apophysis”. This program can also help you with creativity in Corel Painter, if you are struggling on getting inspiration. It basically automatically creates shapes of colors with a click of a button. I have used it myself many times before painting pictures in corel painter.With the computer's position in the life of all modern people, it has increasingly become more and more common to make digital art. 3D-graphics is conventionally used in many film productions.

| | Learning Corel Painter and the RealBristle Brushes | | 2008-01-22 11:28:06 | | I watched this video that other day, as I was surfing around on corel painter related sites. Wanted to get some inspiration for some new art work. Then I found this video, and it really got me exited about the RealBristle Brushes. It is so cool and flexible, you can really create some cool things with this. Real bristle brushes can give you some nice variations and effects, that mainly should be used for spreading paint over large areas. Like putting in the color of the ground, sea, or sky. So what are you waiting for, you should begin right away to experiment yourself with this great feature in corel painter! Who knows maybe it will become your favorite tool soon ;) | | By: Corel Painter Resource blog | | |

| corel painter download - you wont be disappointed & corel painter gallery | | 2008-01-17 09:24:35 | | Many people ask me why I use corel painter rather than Photoshop. I'm sure many other painter users gets asked this as well. I always answer short and simple to those people if they have tried corel painter, and sadly the answer is usually "no". Then i follow up with giving them a link to download it and try it out for themselves. I have always wondered why photoshop has become such a popular program, when corel painter exists. In my opinion photoshop should be used for photo editing, and not for painting, as it cant simulate real life brushes as well. The new version of corel painter is really a brilliant piece of software people, and is strongly recommended. Also I recommend going to the corel painter gallery, to get inspired by the possibilities that are within corel painter. | | By: Corel Painter Resource blog | | |
| | Showing you some good first steps in Corel Painter | | 2007-10-31 13:56:06 | | This tutorial should maybe have been posted at an earlier stage. However I just wanted to show all the beginners of the program these steps you should take in painter at the beginning. Making things like a customized pallet is very nice, since then you will be more efficient. Keep in mind that this tutorial is for beginners, then later this blog will cover more advanced sides of the program. | | By: Corel Painter Resource blog | | |
| | How to use the paper selector, gradient selector, pattern selector, weave selector, look selector, nozzle selector in corel painter in the right way. | | 2007-10-01 13:47:35 | | [Remember that all the images below can be clicked on, in order to see them in full scale!]Hello everyone. Its time to learn more about this amazing piece of software, that corel painter really is. This time we will take a look at some very interesting tools in the toolbox. If you are previously are familiar with photoshop, (And lets face it, most people think photoshop is the best program for digital painting. But we who have come to learn Corel Painter knows better. Personally I think Photoshop is the best program for photo editing, but NOT for painting ;)you might wonder what those four squares beneath the "set foreground selector" are?Well those are great effects that will might make any art more special. Ok, lets take a look at them shall we. I will try to explain this as easy as possible. This is NOT difficult at all I should add, this is definitely more for beginners, than experienced painter users.Now lets start out with how to apply these special papers and effects. The first as can be seen in the picture above is the paper selector. Probably one of the most used of them all, especially for artistic people like us. This feature works in the way that you can basically change paper that you are painting on. If you want to draw or paint on a rugged and rough type of paper now you can! Its really easy to apply too. There are two ways of using this tool. The first way can also be seen in the picture above. Here I have chosen a colored pencil to draw with. When I then click on the paper selector and choose one of the papers, my pencil lines will be affected by this. The default white paper dont change, but when you draw the pencil will react to the surface of the paper, as there was a different type of paper there!This work this way only on some of the brushes in the brush category, like for example the colored pencil.The other way of using the paper selector is by changing the entire paper that you are drawing on. This can be done with first clicking on the pape | | By: Corel Painter Resource blog | | |
| | | | Free download of a superb set of Brushes to Corel Painter IX or older versions | | 2006-08-12 15:51:30 | | One of the first things you should do if you havent done so already, is to find out what types of brushes you like. This is important, because there are so many brushes to choose from, and they will give you lots of different results. And before you can go ahead and create high quality art, you need to master a set of brushes. I really RECOMMEND that you do the following: Go to this site, scroll down to "Corel Painter-related goodies" and : find ROBS BRUSHES hereYou will seriously thank me if you havent downloaded these brushes before, they are in my opinion EXCELLENT ;)I recently found another site that offer you some sets of brushes, that I havent tried out yet. I will download them instantly and try them out, you should do the same buddy ;). Then go here, drag your mouse over the smal menu-bar , and then the picture that comes up, and press download ;) I will go and do the same now, damn im excited, new brushes to investigate ;) | | By: Corel Painter Resource blog | | |
| | Corel Painter .... So whats all the fuzz about? | | 2006-08-11 19:47:11 | | If you are completely new, and dont know a thing about Corel Painter. This post is for you.Ok, so you know that almost every 2D digital artist you know uses Adobe Photoshop, but whats the deal with Painter, you may ask. And why am I so hung up on this program!? Here comes the answer =)Some people prefer Painter because it handles very similar to real life art tools. Its so realistic that it gives a nice feel, that every artist new or skilled will enjoy. Photoshop has to me always been a more Photography/graphic design-centric software, and although they've added more advanced characteristics for the drawing/painting people, it is very digital and does not function like real life art tools. It's safe to say a personal preference thing. I prefer Painter for drawing & painting because the way the brushes react is far more dynamic than Photoshop's brushes.Painter has like I said a great resemblence to natural media tools: Pastels looks like a real pastel, watercolor looks like watercolor etc.However, if it is graphic design and photography that you are after, I would recommend Photoshop because in that department Photoshop beats Painter by a long shot. Editing Photo`s while making lots of selections, cropping them and so on.. is a bit easier with Photoshop. But hey! Isnt it much cooler and more satisfiyng to create a masterpiece with some awesome brushes, that you wont find in other programs (as far as I know). That covers this Corel Painter training for today. It is real late, and Im going to bed now ;) | | By: Corel Painter Resource blog | | |
| | Corel Painter Training ! | | 2006-08-11 07:26:42 | | Yes, so you say to yourself "Im totally new to this, whats the quickest and best way to learn this type of software!?". I must admit that before I became a true Painter fan, I too used adobe Photoshop. And they way I learned that program, was to watch their "Total training dvds". Then you wont miss a thing, it is professionals that go thru every aspect of the program, and train you up to master all the somewhat difficult techniques. Ok enough about Photoshop already. I meant to say that Corel Painter has ofcourse several professional training dvd`s aswell. And here are you can find them: computer-training-software.com & Official Painter site, with a bunch of high quality tutorials on DVD and in books. | | By: Corel Painter Resource blog | | |

| | Hello World and Welcome to this blog dedicated to one of the best digital software programs out on the market: corel Painter | | 2006-08-10 13:09:18 | | This blog will give you all the information you need to know about Corel Painter.Either you are completely new to the program or not, this site should certainly be useful. In addition to useful tips, painter news. I will also give you links, pictures, downloadable content, and lots lots more in the future, so stay tuned !! ;)The idea of creating this site, started ofcourse with a great interest for the program. Corel Painter and the newest version Corel Painter IX.5, is in my mind greatly underestimated. Its big brother Photoshop made by adobe, has for a long time dominated the market. And it is sadly still much much more popular than Painter.Therefore you should certainly pay attention, and see for your self how great this digital software really is. | | By: Corel Painter Resource blog | | |
