Painter 6 provides an extensive array of natural media tools such as felt pens, oil paints and brushes, airbrushes, watercolours, charcoal, coloured pencils and chalk to let you create high-quality print or Web graphics. What you create is limited only by your artistic ability and, of course, your imagination. In previous versions of Painter , the processor-intensive painting technique would slow down brush responsiveness. Corel Painter 6 truly has 'next generation' brush technology. The new brush engine not only renders continuous single-pixel lines of colour representing individual brush hairs but also makes the process much faster than in previous versions.
Users can now move between layers to copy and move objects and elements between layers.
Layers can also have transparency masks. There is also support for Intuos and Wacom tablets, pens and airbrush technologies. The new brush control palette consolidates all the brushes and controls and lets users customize specific brush attributes such as shape, bristles, edges and angle. No matter how proficient I become with Painter , I'm limited by my artistic ability to create unique and interesting work. Even so, it has made it easy to experiment with and enhance my creative side.
