This is not intended to be a detailed user manual explaining everything there is to know about Painter, but simply a straight-forward practical guide for expressive painting using Corel Painter. I explain, with easy step-by-step descriptions, the techniques and artistic strategies I use in my own work. My goal is to empower and encourage you to develop your own unique style in Painter. In traveling around the world and speaking at conferences on Painter I come across a lot of people who say they have Painter on their computer but have only opened it once and then given up on it. This book provides a methodical workflow that can help overcome the initial intimidation of learning the program. In this edition, re-written and updated for Painter 11, I have included, by request, a complete visual reference brush guide showing what all the hundreds of brush variant brush strokes actually look like on the canvas, and, for the first time in the Painter Creativity series, a section on post-print painting. For those who are looking for a methodical real-world approach to using Painter that balances technical and artistic suggestions based on my use of the program since 1991, I think you'll find this a useful and enjoyable companion on your creative journey. If instead you're looking for a definitive, in-depth "User Guide style" book that goes through every command and menu in Painter, this is not the book for you. There are other excellent Painter books out there by authors such as Martin Addison (Painter 11 for Photographers), Rhoda Grossman (Digital Painting Fundamentals with Painter 11), Don Seegmiller (Advanced Painter Techniques), Marilyn Sholin (The Art of Digital Photo Painting) and Cher Threinen-Pendarvis (The Painter 11 Wow! Book) that are all also well worth looking at. If you purchase my book, please let me know how you get on and any suggestions for what you would like to see in future editions. I wish you much enjoyment with it! Best regards, Jeremy (photo © Lincoln Adler)
