Additionally, Painter was not always as stable as Photoshop and the details provided by the brushes caused it to crash on occassion, so you had to save often or risk losing your work in one of the unpredictable crashes. However, you could use their quirks to your advantage in art pieces if you know them well enough. This isn't to say that the brushes are completely unusable (I did complete a skull still life painting that turned out very well with the acrylic brush mentioned above) you just have to be aware that not all brushes will act like the medium they are supposed to represent. Other brushes, like some of the acrylic brushes leave streaks in the brush strokes for "texture" that a real brush wouldn't do. Some brushes like the watercolor brush don't function properly in accordance to how watercolor would react in real life and you would be better off mimicking them in a different way or just doing an actual watercolor painting to achieve the effect that you want. Unfortunately, it can sometimes be overwhelming for. These react dynamically to the movements of the stylus and to the canvas. Compared to Corel Painter and other programs in this category, Adobe Illustrator is easier to navigate. While I do love many of the brushes in Painter, there are others that I avoid. Painter 2020 offers absolutely realistic media and unique digital painting tools. Whatever I played with, even in relatively big canvases, wasnt laggy, which I find precious.

The customizeability of the brushes is also great and gives you a lot of options to get the effect that you are looking for. Because of this, Painter is my Go To program when I want to achieve certain results that I can't do as quickly, as well, or as comfortably in Photoshop. Additionally, Painter provides a more natural way to add textures to your work. I've had many people not realize that those pieces were done digitally. Plus, they were very easy to work with and intuitive. It’s a flat-out excellent value for any digital artist looking to up their game in. My favorite brushes were the drawing mediums like the square chalk brush or graphite as it does a good job replicating the look of the mediums it is supposed to represent without the mess. Finally, the 30 top tier offers Corel Painter 2020 and 20 different brush packs that usually run 30 each. Not only can you choose a "medium" like charcoal, graphite, marker, etc, but you can select a paper texture, and if the brush has been set up to react to that texture you can get some pretty realistic results. When I use Painter, I fell in love with the way it can mimic traditional mediums.
