- The Painter X WowI have purchased quite a few books relating Photoshop and Painter, this is the first that has maintained my undivided attention from cover to cover. The layout is different to the other books I have purchased in that it is clear, great layout and has concise instructions in small doses. If you are a starter with Painter go for it. I have picked up quite a few pointers and will continue to use The Painter X Wow as a reference book. The Gallery of paintings is also of interest, especially the descriptions ... Read More

- Good book. Bad index. Content still worth purchasing.The content of this book is superb. Unfortunately, accessing the content when you have a question, is a problem. I've only had the book a couple days, and I've only gone to the index three times, but for two of those three times, I was directed to the wrong page. I have been able to flip around in the book, looking for sections that are likely to contain the answer, but it is frustrating to pay almost 40 dollars for a book with a poorly assembled index.
I would still recommend this book, despite ... Read More

- Great book!This book is a great source of information of how to use the program creatively and in many different approaches. There are a lot of examples from different Artists showing how they use Painter to create their work. And in the beginning of the book there is enough information to cover the basics.

- Apparently the best so farI was forced to read and use this book for a class in Corel Painter X. I also owned the first Painter Wow book. This one is a great improvement over that, however it still misses the mark on what is needed. Painter has improved greatly also, and has become more complex, if not enigmatic program. Painter was designed for a special group of people, (artists, yes we're special,) who generally like to just pick up a tool and start making art with it. While this book has great full color illustrations of what is possible, ... Read More

- Painter X Wow!This is not a book for a person with no experience with the Painter software. While I believe there is useful information contained in it, it is not organized in a manner for a newbie to easily garner the workings of the software. The book is overloaded with pictures and screen shots accompanied by extremely small type which, while interesting, both detract from the content and do little to create a learning experience. I will probably come back to it after finding a more useful book and gaining more experience.
