Painter comes with a nice variety of different paper textures for you to play around with. So you know that located right here and you see that you have pretty elaborate selection to choose from, from new streaks to fine dots to hard lay paper, but what if you want to make your own mark in the world. You want make your own custom paper, so that your art work is going to have a unique flare. Well, let's go ahead and talk about that. It's very easy to do. And there are a couple of options to take into consideration. The first thing I want to do is actually mark up my canvas so I'm going to use in this particular case you can use whatever you want, but I'm gonna use pencils as my brush and I'm going to choose the variant to be pencil, okay. I'm also going to decrease the opacity just a tiny little bit to about thirty five percent. And I' going to keep the brush size at ten point four. What I'm going to do is just draw a couple of streaks, it doesn't really if I mess up, across the canvas, like so. And I'm going all the way across on purpose because there is an option that I want to share with you called cross fade. So I'm going to do this twice. I'm going to create this paper without the turning the cross fade all the way up to show you what happens when you actually paint on your custom paper. So let's go ahead and stop here and I' going to now select this paper, because if you don't select it you can't capture it. Now let me show you what I am talking about. I'm going to go to the menu here and I'm going to choose either launch palette so that we can try to capture this paper. Now you see here as well its ghosted out, and when I launch the palette the option will be ghosted out here as well, because you have to select something first. You have to either use the selection tool, marquee tool to tell it that you want to capture that or what you can do is go to select menu and choose all here. Either way, one you have a selection then you can capture that paper. So what is going to happen is its going to make a screen shot pretty much of your paper and apply it to painter. So what I'm going to do is call this crisscross and I'm going to turn cross fade all the way off, and I'll talk about what that does in a second. Now what I am going to do is delete my work here and I'm going to reduce the size of the rows and columns so that we can really see what happens here. If you look very carefully you can see that distinct line there. I'm going to actually paint on the canvas with a charcoal and I'm going to make sure it's a nice size here. I'm gonna paint. And as you see that is the paper that we just captured, but look at the tiles. We can see a distinct sharp edge here. That is because we don't have any cross fade on it, so what I want to do is create a cross fade. So I'm go ahead and delete that and I am gonna show you also while we're doing this how to get rid of paper if you don't want it. Just got to the menu, choose paper mover and then find the paper you want to get rid of, as you see it's crisscross, and click delete, and now that's gone. So let's go ahead and create a new texture. I'm going to go back to my pencil and I'm going to create another one. So that I'm not gonna be as elaborate on this one. It's going to be scribbly here. Man its great being an artist. You can just do all this all day long. Now what I am going to do is once again select all and I'm going to with my paper palette capture this paper. And we'll call it crisscross two. Although the two is not necessary because I got rid of the crisscross one. This time let's put the cross fade all the way up to one hundred percent and click OKay. Once again to show you how this works I'm going to reduce this quite a bit so we can actually paint with this and see the difference. I'm going to hit delete on my keyboard to get rid of the stuff in here. Select all and I'm going to clear that out. Here we go and now I'm going to grab my charcoal and paint. And you'll notice that the edges in between each of tiles is a little bit more subdues because we have a cross fade happening. So it's going to blend a little before it goes into the next section. Of course, if you just want to have no cross fade to deal with, just increase the rows and columns and then just paint normally. And as you see here when I'm painting across this one I'm painting with bigger strokes because I have the rows and columns maxed out, or rather larger then they were before. So I don't have to worry about the issue of cross fade, So that's how you create your own custom paper. And that's how you can delete the custom paper as well.
