Recently I have been trying out different programmes for drawing and painting on my computer with a Wacom pen tablet. I’ve been using trial software by by Corel and Adobe. Corel is easy to use and has everything you need to paint and draw and so does Adobe. But Corel is easy to use. If I want to paint with acrylics or watercolours I can do that straight away. Corel has a mixing pad and an easy to use interface with everything I need at the click of a button. Adobe has everything I need and much much more. I’m sure if I went to university and studied rocket science I would prefer Adobe over Corel. Sorry Adobe, Corel beats you simply because it’s easy to use. I don’t have the time or patience to learn another language just so I can draw a circle and resize it!

Corel Painter is the one for me.
