Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Superb
Review: Painter 7 is hands down the best and most most versitile digital art studio to date. I have been trained in various dry and wet media, this program lets you put that training to use. The freedom of a digital canvas cannot be appreciated by everyone, but if you are an artist who is a techie at heart or visa versa you will love this program. The brushes included are amazing and very closely mimic the behavior of real brushes. It is somewhat pricey, but if this is how your bread is buttered this software is well worth the price. It cannot do what Photoshop 7 does, it doesn't even try to, but it works seamlessly with it. Try it out today.

Summary: Art Studio in a Box
Review: This is one incredible program! The best way to describe it is that it's an entire art studio (plus a photo editor and web publisher) on a disc. From chalk and crayon to paint and even water color (!) this program handles it all. I've been amazed with the high quality images I've been able to create. The dregee of subtlty I'm able to achieve when blending and smearing is incredible. I've already posted some things on the web and have just foud out that the program also lets you create basic animation! These animations can be created in the frame rate of your choosing and be exported as Quicktime,AVI (windows only) or GIFs for posting on the web. That's taking things to the next level!

Professional and serious artists will get the most out of this software since it follows many of the same rules that apply to using actual paints and papers (watercolors run and require 'drying' time). But other users should be able to pick up the basic techniques and be able to create some terrific art. The interface with OS X is easy on the eyes and very responsive. However, you will want to use a tablet and stylus instead of the mouse to maximize your results. If your looking for the best painting program available (on the best OS around), well your search has ended. The possibilities are as limitless as your imagination.
