Thanks again Karen, I seriously cannot thank you enough for the help you've provided in showing us how to use this program. You know how much I adore your artwork, and seeing how you get it there is a great pleasure and inspiration. The way you love nature shows in everything you do.

thank you, i;'m just now plunging myself into digital painting and your helping me to do that, thanks

[@murulishamanna909]

Karen, as always watching your paintings is bliss.

I have learnt so much from this video and I'm not just talking about as per title. I had no idea that I could setup a Custom Palette with Menu Options and Brush Sizes from the Brush Size Library. This now cuts down so much keyboard use it's unreal. Thank you, so very much @Karen Bonaker . I've just recently purchased Painter 2022 and was totally lost, I'm now fast becoming totally in awe with this app.

Thank you!

Dear Karen, could you please share your ps7-Cloud Brushes for us? Thank you a lot!

[@franktiedemann872]

Can you explain how you got to the captured dabs.

[@wp-ie]

Someone told me not to waste my time with the videos on this channel and I didn't want to believe them. Well, they were correct. I am really disappointed, and that has nothing to do with the fact that I don't like this style of painting so much. I wouldn't have said anything about that if I would have learned something from this video. Oh! Wait, I did learn something: i can have customized drawers, and although there was no explanation at all how to do that, that was easy to find. So I am polite and say thank you at least for that. Otherwise? Oh yeah, a big text bubble on the screen told me I can import my Photoshop brushes! But HOW? That was the reason I came here, the title says "using the Captured dab panel" but neither is explained how to import PS brushes into that dab library, nor is there any information HOW to capture dabs. One would expect on a channel with the name Painter TUTORIALS that we would at least get information HOW to do that stuff. Well, she did paint with the dabs, but that was just a demonstration how she personally goes about this painting, but no useful general information after the first 5 minutes at all. I sat through it, because I thought there has to be more information throughout this video. There HAS to. Well, no. Nope, nada, niente, nein, non. You call this a tutorial? I don't. If I want to spend half an hour watching someone painting a single particular painting, i go and watch Bob Ross. Much more informative, and lots of more fun to watch! This was the 3rd video on this channel I watched, and it will for sure be the last one. Just wasted time. All the same: almost no useful information, just painting demonstrations. IMO this channel should have the name Painter Demonstrations, not Painter Tutorials!

[@Bee-KL]

Whoever gave you that advice was correct and I wish I have read all the comments before I watched the video. Yours is way down and I only read the ones I did see without scrolling and startet the video. i am 100 percent with you, and I will take that advice you were given and will look somewhere else for hopefuilly real tutorials. I got Corel Painter just a few days back from the Humble Bundle offer, I am a totally newb to that app and this video popped up when I searched Google about dabs. But like you wrote this is not a tutorial. I don't like to read user guides but I think I will have to. And I am wondering if Corel knows about this channel that claims to offer tutorials for their software. This is almost click bait.

[@OriginalContentRobot]

Yep. I agree with that. There are so many of these so called tutorials I have for a long time read the comments before watching and this is a classic case. When an instructional video begins with a canvas already in place and off they go without telling you the size and the resolution I just don't bother. As you said about Bob Ross. Yep, far more information and there are better programs to use like Paintstorm, which for me has allowed me to paint mountains with a varying amount of success rather than this person who did do a Bob Ross instructional course and due to licensing laws had to stop and remove the brush package. It would seem that that the BR company would rather you buy the oil, canvas and brushed from them rather than allow digital artists to create.

[@vihangaraveen8891]

Cool!

[@Joani161]

I would to have seen the start of this painting as well. Is there a way to rotate or change direction of brushes like th one for the rocks?

[@jeanrenaudviers]

Not with a simple mouse. But with a graphic tablet and a sensitive pen that give information to Painter about pressure, orientation, tilt, rotation...

[@jeanrenaudviers]

Wacom Intuos pro does this. Maybe you can afford a cheaper tool.

[@paulatreides1354]

You can have so much better result in photoshop ,or clip studio paint , painter was cool in early 2000. But now it’s just a joke

[@ImMendota]

I have all three, and no, neither Clip Studio or Photoshop can hold the light for painting as well as Painter. Just because you can't afford it or figure out how to use it is no reason to make snide comments. Photoshop is unparalleled in Photo editing and it has some nice sketching tools, but even Adobe recognizes that it is not a real painting program which is why they are now working on their own new painting program, Fresco which is coming along.

[@kullenberg]

@@ImMendota do you have any examples of works produced in Painter that couldn't have been done with other software? I'm genuinely curios

[@ImMendota]

@@kullenberg There are other good paint programs besides Painter... But Clip Studio strong point is illustration and Manga. PhotoShop is Photo editing... Another examples of excellent paint programs are Rebelle, Artrage, and Paint Storm Studio and Paint Storm. Clip studio has some very nice paint tools, but they are somewhat limited on realistic dept paint, and water color really is not like water color.

[@fromseatosea3910]

Photoshop is for drawing and editing, not for paint.

[@FreeSpokenOne]

@@fromseatosea3910 Photoshop has also greatly improved and become more than just photo software but I still prefer Painter for art as it was designed for that specifically. I'd love it if Painter were to adopt Photoshops history tool all the same.
