New! Smart Stroke™ Technology
Quickly achieve impressive paintings or sketches with intuitive tools. Built into the Auto-Painting palette, Smart Stroke technology paints with brush strokes that follow the shapes and contours in your original photo. It dynamically changes brush size, stroke length and pressure, based on the detail and focal areas of the original photo.
New! Updated File Format
Quickly return to a project for further editing. Corel Painter Essentials 4 now saves the source image with your painting so you can continue working at any time.
Drawing and Painting Tools
New! Brush Drawer
Easily select brushes by previewing brush stroke samples and quickly access your most recently used brushes. You can also easily add your favorite brushes to the Brush Drawer column.
New! Mixer Palette
Get the exact color you want every time. In addition to the traditional Color Wheel, the new Mixer palette simulates the traditional experience of mixing colors on an artist's paint palette, making it easier for you to blend colors and get precise results.
New! Colors Palette

Go back to earlier versions of your work to view or undo portions of your painting.
New! Online Print Services

Apply realistic charcoal drawing effects to your artwork with new brushes that range from pencils to hard or soft charcoal sticks. As with other dry media brushes, the opacity is linked to pen pressure.
New! Sumi-e Brushes
Create flowing sumi-e-style brush strokes. Sumi-e is a style of painting that is characteristically Asian, and has been practiced for well over a thousand years. Literally ink painting, it is an art form that strives to distill the essence of an object or scene in the fewest possible strokes.

Paint in the style of Master Artist John Singer Sargent.
Enhanced! Brush Ghost
Receive unprecedented visual feedback of brush stroke behavior and enjoy better control as you apply brush strokes.
