Reviewed in the United States on September 27, 2021
I purchased this product and followed the instructions in order to download it to my PC. Although I ordered the Corel Painter Essentials 8, the pop up would only accept a serial number for the Painter 2022, which I did not purchase. The Painter 2022 is the only program I am able to download, but, because I did not purchase that program, the serial number is invalid. I tried to contact customer support and am still waiting on a response.

I would not reccomend this art program for beginning graphic artists, but overall the program is smooth to utilize. I did not get the bonus brush set that was advertised. Any upgrades to this program is insanely priced. I will be looking for a better program in the future.
