NaturePainter receives a great review from LockerGnome

November 25, 2002, Jake Ludington

Far from considering myself an artist, I was quite surprised at how easy this software is to use. I went through a couple tutorials, just to get a feel for virtual oil painting, and within minutes I started applying the techniques described, making my own virtual landscapes. Six brushes and a palette knife, combined with a variety of brush stroke options, allow you limitless options in creating digital masterpieces. If you've got a painting in your head waiting to burst out, this is a quick way to put your ideas down, without the mess or expense of oil painting tools. I did notice that the program seems to use a large amount of processor power, so it may not work well with older machines.
