Corel Painter IX features an improved performance and productivity. It is the fastest version of Corel ever made. It performs ten times faster and brushes work twice as fast. It also features a new welcome screen, enhanced brush control palettes and new frames per second control. By this addition, animators can now test frame rates directly in Corel Painter. Another addition is the new customizable shortcut keys which offer unprecedented level of control over the workflow by enabling complete customization of shortcut keys.
With Corel Painter IX, a milestone in the evolution of digital art has taken place. New artist’s oil painting system can be blended, mixed and made ‘organic’ thus, it blow away preceding misconceptions of a possible digital realm. The new snap-to-path-painting is a time-saver feature where users can paint or draw perfect curve or shape. With it, brush strokes along a vector path or shape is no longer impossible. In Corel Painter IX Digital Watercolor has been significantly improved. It

Giving opportunity to beautify photos and painting regardless of the medium is its specialty. Painters are now throwing away the digital curse because they can now sensitively emulate paint, stroke, brush, texture and atmosphere. Some of the satisfied users say that they simply could not have produced a great artwork, reminiscent of the original movie for a production without Corel Painter IX.
There is really no substitute for Corel Painter. It has remarkable power and striking versatility. It sets a standard for performance to redefine the digital art and mastery. No doubt about it – Corel Painter IX has taken digital art to the next level!

About the Author
Maricon Almonte
I love reading. Give me a book and I'll finish it in one sitting. Reading is the chance to be transported to a different world and so is writing. I'm more enthusiastic about writing however, since you can relay your ideas to someone else. I can only imagine that feeling when I hear a complete stranger talking about my ideas which read on an article somewhere.
