Learning digital art

Overview

Most people buy a drawing tablet to create digital art. I have collected some links below to help you get started.

The role of drawing tablets

I do recommend a drawing tablet for digital art, but you do not have to use one for everything.

Many people use tablets in addition to other techniques. For example, some people draw on paper and then photograph or scan the drawing to get it into their computer. From there, they finish their work with a drawing tablet.
