Corel Painter Essentials 4 Review

Corel® Painter™ Essentials 4 is the ideal way to get started with digital art. This simple-to-use home art studio is based on the world’s most powerful painting and illustration software — Corel® Painter™ X.

The popular Photo Painting System has been significantly enhanced to reduce the complexity of turning a photo into a painting. The addition of Smart Stroke™ technology provides more intelligent brushstroke behavior during the auto-painting process. With art tools that faithfully replicate “traditional”
paints, brush, and papers, it’s now easier than ever before for users to achieve more expressive hand-painted works of art.

Corel Painter Essentials 4 is perfect for adding a unique touch to photos, greeting cards, scrapbooks, and school projects. Home users, on both the Mac OS® and Windows® platforms, now have everything they need for creating digital art and lasting family mementos. Easy to learn, Corel Painter Essentials 4 is complete with training videos and a helpful guidebook, making it simple to get started on a digital art project.

Corel Painter Essentials 4 is a perfect complement to image-editing applications, such as Adobe® Photoshop® Elements, Adobe® Photoshop®, Corel® Paint Shop Pro®, and Ulead PhotoImpact®. Users can optimize their photos with their favorite image editor and then create a personalized handmade painting with Corel Painter Essentials 4. They can easily output their final painted images on canvas or use them for other creative projects, such as scrapbooks, apparel, and greeting cards.

With its streamlined user interface, easier workflow, and increased creative options, Corel Painter Essentials 4 lets home users create beautiful, handmade digital-art keepsakes that are perfect for framing, using in crafts projects, and sharing as special gifts to friends and family.

There are so many different things you can do with this program, and I urge you to check it out. Corel Painter Essentials 4 would make the perfect gift for everyone on your list.
