Grab your textured blank canvas, assorted brushes, some vibrant watercolors and a few dripping inks – it’s time to start painting. With the advent of digital painting, traditional artists can now bring their same vision, creativity and tools directly to their desktop studio and achieve the same stunning results.
Digital painting is a notable art form whereby traditional painting techniques are seamlessly blended into the digital world thanks to realistic Natural-Media® found only in Corel Painter that perfectly emulates real life art materials.
Believe it or not, digital painting essentially mirrors the same materials and creative process used for traditional painting, sans the mess and sometimes annoying fumes.

Digital painting lets you expand your creative possibilities, and Corel Painter is changing what’s possible in art.
