14 DAY TRIAL // Corel Painter Essentials 4 was officially released today and is now available for anyone who wants to buy straight from the main page of the parent company. The product can be bought for $99 as a standalone technology but it is also available for $69 as an upgrade for the basic Painter 4. In fact, Painter Essentials is a mix of the basic version of Painter and several painting utilities such as brushes, pencils, paper textures and built-in tutorials. In case you don't know, Adobe recently released a new utility for Photoshop so Painter Essential 4 is probably intended to compete with it.
"With Corel Painter Essentials 4, we wanted to make it as easy as possible for our customers to tap into their creativity, whether they want to create a painting from a favorite photo, or develop a custom piece of artwork from scratch," said Robert MacDonald, Product Manager, Corel Painter. "By further simplifying the user interface and including new training videos and tutorials, our goal is to educate and inspire our customers while giving them the creative freedom to develop something truly unique."
Corel Painter Essentials is also available as a trial version in case you want to test the application before you buy it. In order to do this you can visit the official page of Corel available on this link.
"With Corel Painter Essentials 4, anyone can produce truly exciting artwork even if they have never picked up a sketching pencil or a paint brush," said John Derry, Corel Painter Master. "With a welcoming interface that encourages experimentation and creative 'play', Corel Painter Essentials 4 is designed to help users express themselves in ways they may have never thought possible. The features are easy to find and understand making for an intuitive, fun and rewarding user experience."
