day 3 of fun in the sun event- Corel paint It review and giveaway ends July 2- closed

If your like me Summer time is when I take the most pictures and even my kids love taking pictures this time of the year. There are so many photo editing programs out there and most very expensive and hard. Well Corel Paint It is a little different.

Corel Paint It is a program that is almost half the cost of the other programs and is so easy to use. Even my kids love to play with it, they think it is a fun game ha ha. It takes your picture you took with you camera on the computer and transforms it into unique, hand-painted works of art in a matter of minutes. I love that! It has multiple painting styles, brushes and realistic effects to make it your design and very unique one of kind picture. You can print them, email them, or share online. This is a great program for people of all ages that love photography or just art. It is so easy all you do is pick your style and the brush and click paint and that's it you turned your picture into something wonderful. I mean not that it wasn't wonderful before but now it is unique.

I did a photo of my kids in a group shot and did some oil painting and added my personal touches to it and printed it up and framed it in my living room and now whenever people see it they ask where I got it done at and how much it was. I contemplated telling them I did it myself lol but they are amazed when I do tell them. I really love Corel Paint It and definitely will be using it alot with my photography business and for personal use. I And you can bet the kids will be playing on it too. It gives them something fun and creative to do over this long already boring Summer break and at least I know they are using their creative side of their brain.

One lucky reader is going to win a copy of Corel Paint It. Awesome!

It's not just a photo painting filter. You get to diret what gets done. Which is nice. A one button approach makes it seem too mechanical.
