Art Pen Brush Pack for the Ultimate Digital Art Experience

Experience new heights of digital art with Corel Painter IX Art Pen Brush Pack, a collection of new brushes for Corel Painter IX, introduced recently by Corel Corp. This collection takes advantage of the new Wacom 6D Art Pen for added realism of digital art.

April 15, 2005 ­ Digital art will rise to higher levels of quality through the Corel’s introduction of Corel Painter IX Art Pen Brush Pack. This new collection of brushes made for use in Corel Painter IX bounds together with the power of Wacom 6D Art Pen. It is expected that a heightened level of realism in digital art that has never been possible before will be achieved now by both amateur and professional digital artists.

A superior feature of Corel Painter IX Art Pen Brush Pack is that when it is used with the Wacom 6D Art Pen, the brushes respond intuitively to the x- and u- axes, tilt bearing and remarkable pressure sensitivity. Corel Painter has been known for this already but, the outstanding thing is of that the combination with Wacom add extra dimension of barrel rotation. Through Art Pen Brush Pack, then, digital painting creations take on a more natural stroke. This main combining feature provides digital artists with exceptional control over their brush strokes in the process of their digital art creations.

The Art Pen Brush Pack of Corel Painter IX is designed to capture the fluid motion of the artist’s hand. This is for the purpose of attaining a new level of realism. The different kinds of brushes are:

• Thin Smooth Calligraphy Brush ­ this can be used with a broad and stiff calligraphy pen. It enables the user to control the thickness of the stroke as they rotate their hand. This is also designed to behave like a traditional calligraphy pen. It gives the artist ability to roll the nib of the pen and move the stroke through a full 360 degree rotation.
• Grainy Calligraphy Brush ­ this can also behave like a traditional calligraphy pen that enables the artist to control the thickness of the stroke as they rotate their hand. The pen can also be moved through a full 360 degree rotation. A grainy effect is produced that allow the texture of the paper of canvas to come through.
• Soft Flat Oils Brush ­ this brush has individual bristles that respond to the movement of the painter’s hand in expressive and natural ways. It takes after the traditional flat brush with long soft bristles used with oil paint.
• Square Grainy Pastel Brush ­ this brush allow artists to control the stroke thickness and character of their pastel stroke with the movement and rotation of their hand. Using this is like using a square piece of hard pastel. This brush is also capable of 360 degree rotation.
• Tapered Gouache Brush ­ this brush is like the traditional tapered brush with gouache paint’s feeling and movement. It’s individual bristles respond subtly and naturally to the hand's rotation and pressure.

  According to Scott Rowlings, Wacom Vice President of Marketing, Corel’s Art Pen Brush Pack for Painter IX is a material product of Wacom and Corel’s joint vision for natural and intuitive digital art tools. the combination of Wacom’s Art Pen and Corel’s new Brush Pack is a major step in attaining an intimate rapport between the artist and the brush. This integration enables every nuance of an artist’s hand movement to be translated to a digital canvas with a variety of tools and media.
