Painter 8 Creativity gives you, the visual artist, the explanations you need in order to maximize the power of Corel Painter 8, whether you are a digital designer, multimedia artist, photographer, illustrator, animator, or graphic artist. Sutton illustrates how to transfer traditional art skills to the computer. He teaches the animator how to add painterly effects to their work, whether for video, TV, or the Web.
