Books & DVD's Order FormPainter X Creativity: Digital Artist's Handbookby Jeremy Sutton
Great book (and brush set)! The flow, ideas, and description are intuitive and stimulating. I am learning so much and having fun at the same time--some of my best spent dollars this year! Thanks to you my switch from traditional studio art to digital forms is going strong. Thank you, Jeremy! Sincerely, Linda Hollingsworth Read BellaOnline's review of this book by Digital Art and Design Editor Diane Cipollo Fasten your seat belt!As you embark on following the exercises in Painter X Creativity: Digital Artist's Handbook you are entering a journey of unparalleled creative freedom. My goal is to excite, enthuse, inspire and encourage you on every level and to empower you to make beautiful expressive paintings using the powerful combination of Corel Painter X software and a Wacom tablet. You will experience the joy of creative improvisation and expressing yourself on the digital canvas with boldness, passion and joie de vivre. If you are interested in getting your creative juices going, this book is for you. Learn my perspective on the art of digital painting. The approach and techniques I share can be applied to suit any artistic style and choice of subject. I encourage you to be true to yourself, to follow your heart and to use this book as a creative catalyst. I intend to empower and encourage your individual creativity, to help you on your own original voyage of discovery and to develop your unique voice as an artist. My focus throughout this book is on developing your artistic skills, on being bold, on taking risks and on using your hand rather than applying effects, filters and automatic techniques. I share what works for me and what I believe will make a practical difference to you.
What’s New in this Edition?This edition of my book has been completely revised and rewritten. It includes a fresh structure and design for easier learning, inspiring artworks and effective new projects based on what has worked best in my recent seminars. Explore the many exciting new features of Corel Painter X such as the RealBristle and Smart Stroke brushes, the enhanced Photo Painting and Mixer palettes, the Workspace Manager, and the Divine Proportion and Layout Grid tools. I have included a folder of Jeremy Tutorial Images on the Painter X Creativity Resource Disc (PXC Resource Disc) that accompanies this book. The exercises are designed such that you can either use my images or your own. One of the most valuable benefits of this book, besides what is contained on the printed pages, is the collection of Jeremy Extras on the PXC Resource Disc. This wonderful assortment of extra brushes, brand new custom palettes, papers, patterns, nozzles and powerful workspaces will transform your experience of Corel Painter X. You will enjoy the tutorial images and viewing lively QuickTime movies.

Online Training The interface has not changed significantly between Painter X and Painter 11 so you can easily apply the lessons from all my earlier materials when using Corel Painter 11. Likewise my PaintboxJ Painter 11 tutorials can all be easily applied in earlier versions of Painter. I do strongly recommend upgrading to Painter 11 if you currently have an earlier version. The newest Painter is the best yet. It is significantly faster than earlier versions and includes a whole new class of wonderful brushes (the Hard Media brushes).
