Illustrator is a vector graphics program while Painter is an image editing
program. they are about as far apart in the art creation world as it is
possible to get. vector graphics means you are dealing with only with
shapes. images are a bunch of pixels. Illustrator takes no advantage at all
of a tablet over a mouse, while Painter's existence is justified by using it
with pressure sensitive tablets. i have 3 or 4 versions of each. for
ordinary photographic image manipulation that most people do here, Painter
is well behind what Photoshop can do, while painterly manipulation is what
Painter is all about and Photoshop is just adequate.

There isn't a big difference between Illustrator and Painter is there? I
wouldn't think so.
