About the Class

You may have shied away from Corel Painter in the past, but this is your opportunity to learn it, love it and make it your own!

Instructor Helen Yancy helps you with what is often the biggest hurdle – getting started! Working with the image of a flower, you’ll learn how to clone and save your files, as well as the correct mode in which to start your brush strokes.

Using layers, discover how to make both subtle and dramatic changes to your image. Explore how to manipulate your colors – adding, diffusing, exaggerating and accenting to enhance the final masterpiece.

Helen demonstrates the differences between painting the flower and painting the background. Learn tools like the eyeball that allow you to zoom and examine your work; the eraser that is critical for any artist. Discover when to use a captured bristle brush, when to blend and how to soften the edges so that your work looks dramatic yet natural.

Whether opening and saving files, painting or blending, erasing or adding the finishing touches, Helen gives you all the tools and tips you need. A rose by any other name may smell the same, but once you’ve seen what you and Corel Painter can do for this flower, you’ll never look back!
