Corel Painter 2023 Workspace + New Brushes

UPDATED July 1, 2022

My Painter 2023 workspace is now available for download. I have added some new brushes and tweaked the layout a bit.

Brushes that do not use the Enhanced Cover “Method” were not changed: (Image Hose, Watercolor, Liquid Ink, Thick Paint, Drip,  etc.)

Please note that this workspace is only updated semi-yearly. You will be getting 2 new brushes and 54 updated brushes with this release. You probably won’t see another batch of brushes added to this workspace until late 2022 or early 2023.

You will need to re-run the Brush Accelerator after importing my workspace: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DbyPjhKaiiI

PAINTER 2022 COMPATIBILITY

Please note that the files on my Dropbox have been updated with Painter 2023 content. If you’d like to access the Painter 2022 version of my workspace and brushes, those have been archived in the Workspace folder on my Dropbox.

I will no longer be updating my 2022 workspace, but I will still be offering the individual brushes and BOX files so you can import whatever is compatible with your version.

“Fluid Paint” brushes will not be compatible with Painter 2022 and older.

It is possible that I may release more brushes that are compatible with Painter 2022 and older, but much of the content I create will be for Painter 2023.

The optional Brush Packs I release (not included in the workspace) are compatible with Painter 2022, so check those out if you are mostly interested in new brushes.
