And you want to be them. Heck, who doesn\u2019t. Or perhaps you are them (we envy you, windswept painter person!) But often the reality of painting (messy paints, awaiting the correct natural light, lack of a windswept beach) can stop even the most passionate painter in their tracks.\n\nIf you\u2019re a painter (or aspiring painter) with a vision in your mind and a paintbrush for a heart (call 911, if this is literally the case) but something keeps getting between you and the canvas, technology is here to help. Combining a Wacom tablet<\/a> or display<\/a> with Painter<\/a> software allows painters of all stripes to create when the inspiration strikes.\n\nBut how does one capture the muse digitally? We asked the team at Painter to round up their best tutorials so you can get your digital paintbrush primed to capture the windswept landscapes of your dreams.\n\nRead on for their favorite tutorials.\n
