Particle and dynamic speckle brushes are new to Painter 2015 and 2016. They allow artists to create sweeps of "particles" (speckles, lights, dust, etc.) across the canvas with a single stroke. They are physics inspired, designed to mimic real-world particles as well as the behavior of brushes with individual hairs. In this course, John Derry, one of the original Corel Painter developers, introduces the new brushes and shows how to control the size, shape, density, and randomness of the effects.
You will learn what particles look like and how they are generated, and how to use the brush controls, Opacity slider, Shape attributes, and Color Variability and blending palette to influence the appearance of your brushstrokes. John demonstrates all these concepts using a nondestructive, layer-based workflow and a sci-fi-inspired painting of the night sky, featuring the Milky Way.
