134 Corel Painter X3 Getting Started Guide
Applying paper texture
Corel Painter allows you to apply paper texture to the canvas. In general, you can define
texture as the roughness or coarseness of a surface, which you can both see and feel. In
Corel Painter, however, texture modifies only the appearance of the image, to give you
the illusion of surface roughness. It also interacts by subtly or dramatically altering the
appearance of brushstrokes.
In addition, certain brushes include a “grainy method subcategory that is specifically
designed to react with the paper texture and grain. Some brushes also let you determine
the amount of grain that is revealed by each brushstroke. For more information about
brush methods, see “General controls: Methods and subcategories” on page 329.
One brushstroke applied to three different paper textures.
It is important to note that some brushes, such as those in the Airbrushes category,
don’t reveal paper texture in their brushstrokes. This behavior corresponds with that of
a traditional airbrush.
Corel Painter includes several default paper textures that are stored in the Papers
library. For more information about working with libraries, see “Working with libraries”
on page 45. Additional paper textures are also provided on the Corel Painter DVD and
on the Corel website.
To apply a paper texture
1 Click the Paper selector button in the toolbox.
2 In the Paper Textures library panel, click a paper texture swatch.
