DigArts Software "Grains & Grasses" Nature Paints

DigArts Software recently announced the immediate availability of their new collection of high-speed paints for professional artists using Painter, Paint Shop Pro or Photo-Paint.

"Grains & Grasses is the newest in our series of paints for art professionals working with nature," said Dennis Berkla, president of DigArts Software. "This set paints grains and grasses with unmatched speed and detail, even at high resolutions. These paints are ideal for graphics, illustration and fine art because they work in a range of sizes and for a variety of media, including print, video and 3D."

The nozzles, tubes and lists spray foliage in common growth patterns (think coherent paints). They can paint big too, over 2000 pixels. Wheat, rice, grass, oats, foxtails, sorghum, broom, bromus and wild grains are on the CD, and in seasonal and windblown variations. Touch-up and shadowing tools are included as well. Plus, the palette is expandable. The paints are coordinated so artists can "mix" their own.

The Painter version also includes an assortment of brushes and touch-up patterns designed especially for Painter 6-8. The brushes let artists choose variants created for each of the nozzles or patterns. Better yet, the pattern libraries offer a unique set of touch-up paints that can extend creative control down to the level of individual seeds and grains. Grains & Grasses is truly comprehensive.

Grains & Grasses is available through March for only $69.95 (regularly $99.95). Grains & Grasses requires Painter 5.x-8, Paint Shop Pro 7-8 or Photo-Paint 8-12). To see examples or to find out more, visit Digarts Software at http://www.gardenhose.com.
