Auto-painting photos

Corel Painter’s auto-painting tools streamline the process of creating a painting that is based on a digital image or scanned photo. Previous experience with digital art is not required to use these tools.

The auto-painting process involves four basic steps:

 

Prepare a photo for painting by using the Underpainting panel (Window Auto-Painting Panels Underpainting). This step is optional.
Clone the photo by clicking the Auto Clone button in the Underpainting panel.
Apply brushstrokes to the canvas by using the Auto-Painting panel (Window Auto-Painting Panels Auto-Painting).

The Auto-Painting panels Underpainting, Auto-Painting, and Restoration are grouped together. The Underpainting panel lets you create an underpainting and auto-clone the photo (Steps 1 and 2). Next, you can quickly access the Auto-Painting panel to create the painting (Step 3). Finally, you can go to the Restoration panel to fine-tune your painting (Step 4).
