Testimonials
After working for several hours with the Corel Painter 12 Video Workshop I want to let you know that this has been the ultimate learning experience on Painter 12. The step by step basic instructions were a great refresher course giving me new insights. The video tutorials are clear, stimulating, and instructive. The demonstrations so inspiring and fun. I keep going back to the tutorials for inspiration watching you paint, and in the process finding gems, new tools and methods for use in my art creations.
Compared to the great Painter Creativity books, the Video Workshop elevates the
experience to a different level of interactive learning. The integration with PaintboxTV adds an extra dimension. I can hardly wait to see the other DVD titles in this series.
Thanks, Jeremy for creating this workshop. It will have a great effect on all who want to learn Painter12.

I have been through the first DVD twice. I open Painter 12 and one of my images and work along with your DVD, pausing/backing up as needed to understand what you are doing. It is a wonderful way to learn Painter. And you always have it at your fingertips when you forget how to do something.

What to Expect From the Series
To everyone who has asked me or wondered if I would be writing a Painter 12 Creativity edition of my book or if I would produce an updated Painter 12 DVD, this Corel Painter 12 Video Workshop series is the answer. As the name suggests, I have shaped my instruction around a workshop format with a similar structure and approach as if you are in my studio taking a hands-on in-person workshop. I discuss the big picture and set the context of what we are doing. Next I demonstrate with real life examples a technique, strategy, system or tool. Lastly I give you an exercise to practice what you were just shown.
Take the training at your own pace. The convenient interface allows you to easily find your way around and to pause and replay the videos at any time. Replay, rewind and redo as much as you wish. Enjoy high quality production, a well organized chapter structure, and a lively, enthusiastic and entertaining presentation style.
This first volume is all about setting the stage for success! This DVD-ROM two disc set will be valuable for all users to Painter 12, whether you are interested in transforming photographs or working from direct observation of nature or from imagination or any combination of these. The goal is to go beyond the boundaries of working within one media or another, or taking one approach or another, and instead to provide you with the dexterity and skills within Painter to move effortlessly from one mode of creating art to another.
This DVD-ROM, as with all Jeremy Sutton DVD products, is sold subject to the End User License Agreement.
