Review by Kortick
Corel Painter 2015 is a really professional program. It is an incredible package of tools that you can use to create or modify images in an unbelievable amount of ways. This is not a program that is for beginners, but with some time and use it becomes something that even a non professional such as myself is able to use to do some really exciting things.
I have been a Corel user since 2008 and own several software packages from them, including Photo and Video ones, and had Painter X3, now the upgrade Corel Painter 2015. At first, I went on YouTube and watched a few tutorial videos to get some ideas of how to use this software, and I recommend that if you are not familiar with this software its a good place to see some good reviews and tutorials. Also I have a friend who does professional photography and uses software of this level and he was impressed with it and showed me (and still is) some of the many things this packages can do.
I know many people who own and compete with their horses. My photographer friend takes excellent photographs of the riders at these events. I have now learned to take some of his amazing photos and transform them into incredible works that look like brilliant paintings. I modify the picture and send them the image file as gifts and they take it to a print shop and have them printed, matted and framed professionally. It is really impressive what you can do with this software. I am learning new things all the time. This is a really good upgrade, added features but still familiar to use.
This software has a LOT and is not at first something that a novice will grasp, but with time you will, and I can safely say you will be amazed by what it can let you do. If you are a professional, I would say that Corel Painter 2015 is every bit as good as some of the other programs being sold.
Highly recommended.
