Download free Coloring a Drawing Using Digital Water Color.pdf book For Fantasy Butterfly 2, I used conventional watercolor painting techniques applied to Digital Water Color in Corel® Painter™, using a Wacom® stylus and pressure-sensitive tablet. Digital Water Color is a new medium in Corel Painter 8, which allows an artist to paint transparent washes on the image Canvas or on an image layer. This new watercolor medium is quicker and simpler to use than Water Color media layers, and it’s ideal for adding transparent washes of color to drawings. This tutorial will help you to experience the potential of the Digital Water Color tools in Corel Painter 8, while showing the developmental process of the illustration. Choosing an illustration to color. To create the final color illustration shown above, I opened a black-andwhite illustration of a swallowtail butterfly that I‘d drawn in Corel Painter 8 using the Pens variants. The pen drawing measures 2000 x 1400 pixels. I chose this size because it would allow me to sketch and paint with more detail; also I could print the image at approximately 12 x 8 inches on my studio inkjet printer or at approximately 6 x 4 inches at 300 ppi using offset lithography. Putting the drawing on a layer. To ensure that all of the palettes you will need for this tutorial are open, choose Window, Arrange Palettes, Default. Before you begin to color your drawing, you will have more flexibility while painting if you put your drawing on a layer separate from your painting. Choose Select, All, and then choose Select, Float. A layer will appear in the Layers palette, and the Canvas will now be empty, and white. To make the white areas on the sketch layer appear to be clear, click on the layer name in the Layers palette to select it, and then set its Composite Method to Multiply. This will allow you to paint on the Canvas, using the black lines in your drawing as a guide.
