Into digital art

Journal Entry: Mon Mar 18, 2013, 5:06 AM


Hello everyone!

I feel it's been a while since I last updated my journal, so here's a new entry.
First of, thank you very much everyone for each favourite, comment and watch. It really makes me want to draw even more and improve my skills :heart:
As you can see in my gallery, I am (or try try to be) a traditional artist. I mostly use colour pencils and I am learning my way with watercolors. Also, when it comes to little drawings, such as little dolls, I prefer markers, and I've made a few oil on canvas paintings, but it was a long time ago. As I want to grow as an artist, I like learning the basics of as many techniques as possible, so I can truly value and appreciate the  works of others. Therefore, I think it's time to learn a little about digital art and all its possibilities! :D
As far as I know, the basic tools of any digital artists are their creativity, their image editing program, and their ghrapic tablet. I've noticed that the last two often come together, and that there is a well known brand of tablets, Wacom, which offers many different models and types of tablets including editing software such as some version of Photoshop. I think the Wacom Bamboo Fun Pen & Touch is a nice one, because it's not very expensive and apparently includes all the basics as well as Photoshop Elements and ArtRage programs, but I would like to hear some more opinions. What do you think? Can you recommend me any other tablet and software for a beginner, or any tips, websites or tutorials about digital drawing?

Cheers! :heart:

English is not my native language! Please forgive any mistakes I might make :thanks:

I've been drawing for as long as I remember, and always loved it. Although I am no professional, I try my best to improve everyday, and have a keen interest in the work of others like me as well.
