Corel Painter

Remember those old commercials from the past? "Do you like to draw, or paint, or maybe just sketch and doodle?". Well, with the amazing Corel Painter for Windows, you can most certainly paint. And if this isn't a program, you haven't tried before, and you're in for a most definite treat.

What this program can do would take a long time to describe in-depth and detail, but for starters, there are over 900 available brushes to choose from. Don't have quite the right brush available that fits your fancy? Create your own special one. If you're someone who likes to hit that digital canvas with active and vigorous strokes, this is no issue either. With the trademarked "Brush Accelerator," your strokes are practically in real-time as well, the paint showing up as fast as you can swing your brush. If turning photos into beautiful pieces of art is your thing, then the Corel Painter has you covered there as well. Using its powerful software, the program can either auto-paint your photo into art, or you can do it yourself as the colors are thirstily drunk up from the photo and turned to exact matching digital paint. But all in all, it's about having fun, isn't it? And this is a great place to start.

That's just the beginning. With nearly 30 years of painting software experience, Corel has this down to true science. Whether you're an experienced lifelong artist who's just tired of breaking out the messy tubes of paint and canvas or a newcomer to the field who wants a relaxing and fun hobby, Corel Painter for Windows will satisfy you both and help lead you down the road into a multitude of creative endeavors that you can share with family and friends.

Great flexibility and a wide variety of options are a definite positive here!
