I've known painter for a while, but really learned it well when I was getting my MA in illustration. My professor, William Low illustrates children's books and does freelance work with Painter (and Photoshop). www.williamlow.com

I was wondering if anyone else is required to or mostly uses Painter for their full time work or freelance work.

I'm wondering if I should commit the time to learn Painter better and how marketable a skill that is to have.

Every place that I've worked at always have Photoshop already installed in every computer, only one place in my work experience ever got me a copy of Painter (which I find superior to work on the early sketch and lighting), but most of the places they ask you "can you get around with Photoshop?" and since we can (even when at some parts might be a bit harder) most likely you'll be using Photoshop at the office.
