Hello everyone! I just recently started dabbling with Painter X and I'm having so much fun with it that I want to learn how to use it properly. That's how I found this forum/community - by googling things Corel Painter X forums. I'm looking forward to getting to know people in here and to learning from everyone.

Eventually I want to be profficient enough so that I know what I'm doing and that every image I create will have a PURPOSE. I don't believe in retouching/photoshop/painter/etc. unless the image can be enhanced using digital tools.

Below is my first attempt at Painter X using one of my photographs. All comments/CC welcomed!

Have a wonderful week!

Welcome Greg...

I just spent several minutes surfing your site. You do some inspiring wedding work. I especially like how you have integrated the BW shots in the gallery slide shows.

Based on your first shot at using Painter to achieve this dreamy effect, I predict with confidence you will soon be adding "digital paintings" to your spendid photo offerings.

Continued success as you explore and discover the infinite possibilities achievable with Painter.

Greg, wow you do great wedding photos. I really liked the verity of styles.

Thank you both for looking. I'm totally excited about learning Painter and I look forward to participating in this forum.
