Have Fun with Digital Art
With Painter Essentials 3, you can experience a huge selection of highly realistic digital art tools that replicate the real-word painting experience -- including watercolors, oils, pencils, acrylics, airbrushes and more. Artists' Oils lets you smear colorful "oil paint" on the canvas with thick, bristly brushes that are remarkably realistic. And if watercolor is your medium of choice, Digital Watercolor features breathtaking brushes that behave like real watercolor and even stay wet between sessions. A new rotate/flip canvas feature extends the flexibility of the digital art studio, while a new eraser tool and rubber stamp tool vastly extends the range of your work.
Brushes are the heart and soul of Corel Painter Essentials 3. There are 18 brush categories, ranging from crayons and chalk to acrylics, watercolors, and the new Artists' Oils. While most brush categories mirror the look and feel of traditional brushes, others offer you one-of-a-kind creative tools. And with new tutorials that give you tips as you paint, it's now easier than ever to get started with digital art.
To ensure that digital camera enthusiasts get the most out of their photos, Painter Essentials 3 supports Corel Paint Shop Pro X, Corel Photo Album 6, Adobe Photoshop CS, Adobe Photoshop Elements, and Apple iPhoto. Painter Essentials 3 also features extended support for Wacom's new Graphire4, Intuos3, Cintiq 21UX, and 6D Art Pen. The newly enhanced Welcome Screen gives quick access to recently used files, tutorials, and brush and color management settings. Quick Start tutorials help you get up and running quickly, while training videos created by lynda.com and GeeGuides, which are included on the CD, guide you through the application and teach some exciting, new techniques.

Customer Reviews of Corel Painter Essentials 3 Win/Mac
Unstable, approach with caution I got version 2 "free" with my Wacom tablet. After reading another review here of version 3 it seems not much has changed. <
>Almost every time I try to use this on a Mac it crashes. Not an elegant crash, the app just disappears and the OS tells me "the application has unexpectedly quit". Of course my work disappears with it. <
>Not very impressive. A piece of software with 5 million features that crashes is useless. Period. <
>If it actually worked, this would probably be a good piece of software. <

Good program, great results; but can be glitchy.
I tried the download trial version from the Corel website. The direction are SPARSE, to say the least, and SUPPORT during the trial is non-existant, but eventually, I was able to use the product to produce some gorgeous "paintings." I used it in combination with effects from Adobe Photoshop Elements, and sometimes with Microsoft Photodraw. Just BEE-YOU-TEE-FULL! When I get a little extra spending money, I may invest in the full product purchase, but leaning toward going all out for the Painter software. I think instructions would have helped me get started sooner --you can check books out of the library-- but I liked the program and think it's worth working with. Yes, it was glitchy sometime, but not much, and certainly not more than AdobePE 3.0. I did reload the trial version once, but then it worked fine. I can't complain--it was a 30 day Free trial from Corel's website. Try it first--they give you that option with many of their programs. You don't like it--don't buy it. All you've wasted is a little time.
A different experience
I've not had the difficulties others have expressed with this program. My first experience was with version 2 which was bundled with my Wacom tablet. After using it for a while I was hooked and upgraded to version 3. With a tablet the program is very intuitive, unlike Photoshop CS2 and Illustrator CS2, and produces wonderful results. I've never liked working with digital media until now.
