Corel Painter X lessons with Paul Silva

Learn to handpaint photographs digitally and to create beautiful Giclee canvas paintings.

Dear Paul,

In spite of the fact that I am not an artist, I really enjoyed your gallery
and being able to take your virtual painting class on site. My vacation in
Charleston, thanks to your mini-course, was not only a great learning
experience, but lots of fun! I learned how to use Corel Painter and in
addition, did a lovely virtual painting of my favorite pet. My first
virtual painting was a great souvenir to have sent to my home in Boston.
You're a very patient and methodical teacher. I'm hoping to use my new
skill to enhance my husband's photography business. I can't wait to do
more!

At the end of a two-day class at Paul Silva's Art Studio, I was able to take home a beautiful professional-looking painting that I did myself. Paul's class was well worth the time and effort, and I highly recommend it to everyone.

Thank you Paul . . .

Last week I did something I thought I would never be able to do. I painted a picture that was then turned into a beautiful giclee painting! Beginning with a photograph, which I turned into a painting on the computer! Paul Silva owns a business called Expectations Studios in Mt. Pleasant. In his studio he works magic with a computer. He gives lessons in this virtural painting and they are well worth the time. He spends two days of quality time with you as he teaches you this process. It's fun, taps your ceativiy and in the end you recieve an original giclee prints to take home to keep forever. Janet Hortman Goose Creek, SC
