Painter 11 Creativity

Covers various features in Corel Painter 11 and the Wacom Intuos4 pen-tablet. This book helps you learn how to paint from scratch as well as a loose expressionistic approach to painting from photographs. It includes a CD that offers four QuickTime movies as well as custom brushes, art materials and a Painter workspace.

"After some initial discussion on getting ready (computer requirements, graphic tablets, etc) there is a hefty chapter on painting from photographs and although this covers nominally the same material as Painter for Photographers the effects are considerably more removed from reality and the viewer would be unaware of their photographic origins."--Professional Imagemaker Magazine
