This year, Corel released a mind-blowing new version of their digital painting application, Painter While Painter was an incredible leap from version X3, including the introduction of exciting physics-inspired particle brushes, the new Painter brings even more incredible new features, making it the best version yet.

Corel Painter should be a top choice for anyone interested in painting digitally, as it is truly an expressive digital art application for a variety of artists.

Painter is not only a perfect fit for traditional artists crossing over to digital, but also great for illustrators, matte painters, concept artists, and even photo artists. There is nothing around that does what Painter does so well. Sure, there are other painting programs out there, but nothing matches Painter's capabilities. And now, with Painter , the list of new and enhanced features is even more enticing. The new features start with the new welcome screen that now includes direct links to video training, which even tracks your learning with checkmarks appearing on training you've watched under the 'Learn' tab.

The 'Get Content' tab displays some new brush packs available, including examples. The 'Get Started' tab, as pictured below, offers all the options to start creating, including optimal workspace configurations for the type of art you want to create. And last, the 'Get Inspired' tab is an excellent showcase of works created by other Painter artists that serve well as inspiration.

New Brushes Corel Painter brings with it a total of new brushes. According to Corel, this is the largest amount of new brushes added in any Painter release. And they are a cool lot, indeed. Painter introduces the all-new Dynamic Speckle brushes. Oh, how I love these! I was so excited about these brushes once I actually tried them myself.

Dynamic Speckle brushes add together the particle brush technology introduced in Painter , along with brush thickness controls to provide incredible new looks with speckles generated as you paint. You have an enormous amount of control over the generated speckles, including color variability, opacity, etc. There are also new dab types added in this release that combines particles with watercolor, liquid ink, and impasto for some really great random effects.

Painter now also features an exciting new way to create randomness in your brush stroke with the new Audio Brushes. Imagine listening to your favorite music while creating, and the music has input into the process as well. Whether using music on your computer or even speaking into a microphone, your brushstrokes are affected by the audio input.

Audio can affect such things as size, opacity, jitter, color, and angle. You can also adjust the strength of the audio input to refine how it affects your brushstrokes. Some might think it's just novelty, but I really enjoy this feature. New and Enhanced Features Paper and Flow Map rotation is a fantastic new feature that allows you to create varied looks in your brushstrokes by way of changing texture direction.

This works fantastic with the watercolor brushes and being able to change texture direction opens up great possibilities with other brushes as well. The user interface even gets some nice new features this time around in Painter The first is the option to change the look of the interface. In addition to the default gray, you now have 3 color options for the interface: dark, frost, and sepia.

You can also change the background to any color you'd like from the color wheel in Painter. There are also new document views that allow you to view the default with controls, the active document only, or a presentation mode for showing off images. The change I liked most was that the brush library in Painter was cleaned up quite a bit, removing some brushes that may not have been so unique in their categories. Basically, the library was whittled down to brushes from a whopping I really liked this, as it was previously a pretty daunting task going through all the brushes to find what you want to use.

This latest update introduces a new input type called Audio Expression. It uses either an audio input, such as a microphone, or the system audio — most likely some music — and turns the volume envelope into a controller. This can be mapped to a wide range of parameters including size, opacity, grain, angle and colour variation.

I'm not convinced by Corel's suggestions that this channels the emotion of music into an artwork. It's also disappointing that there's no Smoothness control — the tracked audio volume jumps from one value to the next at a low sample rate. Even so, making noises into a headset microphone while painting added a welcome extra level of control. With Opacity mapped to pen pressure and brush size mapped to the audio input, I was able to take precise control over brush strokes.

With so much editing depth, it's a relief to find a well organised collection of brush presets. There are in total, including that are new in this version and legacy brushes that are hidden from view but remain available for backwards compatibility. There's an Audio Expression category to show off this new feature. Some of these brushes are disappointing but we really liked the four that also employed the particle feature introduced in Painter These use multiple points — or particles — that move in complex ways as they apply colour to the canvas.

They have more in common with particle generators used to create smoke and fire effects in animation software such as Hitfilm Pro than the bristles in Painter's other brush types.

Here, they can produce sparks and explosions, and also come in handy for fur effects and other rich, organic textures. Combining particle brushes with Audio Expression produces some richly dynamic and expressive brushes that are a real pleasure to use. The discrete cylindrical blocks are a little disappointing, though — I'd have preferred a smoother response to the input.

Various other new brush types combine particle technology with more conventional Painter features such as bristle thickness. In particular, the brushes in Dynamic Speckle category are among the most impressive brushes for natural media effects. A revamped interface is listed among the new features.

Brush Hints are extremely welcome, providing an explanation for a control as you hover over it. These are included for the newer and more complex controls only — it's a shame they're not available for all. There's a new Presentation mode that clears the screen to show only the canvas, plus the ability to change the interface colour.

Overall, I'd class the interface as good rather than great. Technically minded users will appreciate direct control over a vast number of parameters, while others will be content with the brush presets and basic controls in the Property Bar.
