Corel

®

 Painter

™

 12 is the ultimate digital art studio. Its combination of inventive 

drawing tools, image cloning capabilities, virtually unlimited customization 

options, as well as Natural-Media

®

 brushes, colors, and textures help you 

achieve total creative expression in a digital realm.

With the introduction of new Real Watercolor and Real Wet Oil brushes, Painter

™

 

continues to offer unprecedented realism that is simply not possible with other 

software. These new brushes expand on the authenticity of the RealBristle

™

 

Painting System, which mimics the bending and splaying of traditional, 

real-world brush bristles on the canvas.

Painter also provides unique and progressive digital art capabilities, such as the 

new Mirror Painting and Kaleidoscope composition tools. In addition, the ability 

to customize practically every detail of the interaction between brushes and the 

canvas gives artists boundless creative options.

What sets Painter apart from other digital art tools is the unmatched finesse and 

responsiveness of its brushes and textures. It gives artists and other creative 

professionals a true competitive advantage and helps them differentiate their 

artwork.

If you’ve so much as experimented with the brushes in Adobe

®

 Photoshop

®

, you 

owe it to yourself and your portfolio to see what Painter can do for you. To 

quote longtime Painter user and digital art evangelist, Android Jones, “Painter 

has become such a natural form of how I explore my imagination and creativity. 

It’s settled into a second nature now, where I’ll dream in Painter.” 

We’re confident that if you try it for yourself, you’ll find that the 

pressure-sensitive brushes quickly become fluid extensions of your hand, with 

brushstrokes that are unrivaled in texture and precision. Maybe you’ll soon be 

dreaming in Painter, too.
