I am just learning to use Painter.

By Rick Kurbis

Gads... This is supposed to be Corel Painter... (checks title)

First 13 minutes is Photoshop. So I stopped watching.

I've watched 2 other courses with this guy and I was not impressed at all.

Corel should have picked someone else to do these tutorials.

I received these tutorials as part of a Corel Painter bundle. I would not pay for this as "tutorials" for Corel Painter. So without further adieu...

By CH Liu

More details of the demonstration practice should be provided in the sample videos. The demonstration part grasps the general workflow of the Painter tools, but somewhat lack of details of the specific tools the lecturer uses.

By Daniel T Ruke

The image shown and advertised is beautiful and complex. The actual work done in the video is elementary. So it never show me how to do that style of painting. It also has a video that has nothing to do with the course, someone should review it it's clear that someone uploaded the wrong video

By Mildred Stephens

Good demo of tools....

By James Childerhose

It appears as though this is his first week at painting.

Now this is more informative

By David Muth

The Corel Painter 2016 Photograph course already taught me several things that I didn't know about Photoshop. Yow. I love it so far.

By Shelly Brown

I'm very excited about this course. It's an interesting topic that I can't wait to learn more about. The instructor sounds confident with his teaching and his knowledge of the software. Loving it!

By Lorne D. McGlynn

By David Cawley

only problem I had was.

To much photoshop as I am corel user photoshop is no help to me

By Susannah Keegan

The course itself is 5 stars. I made a lower rating to call attention to an error in the modules. Section 2, Chapter 6, Performing Searches is actually part of a completely different course which got stuck in this one by accident. It needs to be taken out.
