Awakening from seven years of slumber, a new version of Painter Essentials has finally hit the streets. Targeted toward hobbyists, art enthusiasts and emerging photo painters, Painter Essentials 5 was redesigned to be smoking fast and far easier to use. It includes a whopping 31 new and useful brushes—including some of Painter 2015’s hot new Particle Brushes—plus two new tools for creating mirror and kaleidoscope paintings, a vastly improved photo painting engine, a powerful brush-tracking utility, real-time effect previews, and more. Whether you’re an aspiring artist or a photographer, there’s a lot to enjoy in this new release.</p><h2>Speedy and simplified interface</h2>

The 64-bit and Apple Retina-happy Painter Essentials 5 was rebuilt from the ground up using the new code base of its pro-level sibling,
Painter 2015. Its simplified, floating-panel based interface exudes a friendly and uncluttered feel. A welcome screen helps those new to the app get started quickly—you can choose to create a new painting or drawing, open one you’ve already started, create photo art (incredible fun!), pop open a handy QuickStart guide, or visit Corel online.</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/2864070/painter-essentials-5-review-fun-photo-painting-with-31-new-brushes.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article>
