Sketched on Wacom Bamboo Pen and Touch Textured With Wacom Intuos Pro When I decided to upgrade my pen tablet I had my doubts. Would I notice a difference, worth $350? I skimmed over the specifications. Double the pen pressure?! My digital paintings can have even more detail and I'd never have to restock on paints again! I've had my Wacom Bamboo tablet for nearly five years now. It still works... This was an investment, unlike casually upgrading my phone every year. I do a lot of research. This seemed competitive in giving a user an edge on Deviant Art. Enter Intuos Pro. Just looking at the pictures, I found my silver bamboo with that nice white LED strip to be better-looking than the Intuos Pro. Not that looks matter much anyway, when it comes to securing a job in concept art. After all I'm moving from an entry-level tablet to the staple Deviant Art standard. So I...

What's a Pen Tablet? In simple terms, it will be your third arm; your go-to solution for getting your art to show up on screen. Ok, it's really just like your pencil. And your pen. And your brush. And your marker. With digital art, any shape of brush and its physical effect can be simulated, beyond what's possible with the canvas. Here's how you start creating your own magical digital art!

If this is your first tablet, an Intuos or Bamboo could be a great entry-level tablet. Later you can consider the Cintiq tablet PC. But come on, I've been draw...

A good idea starts as a random thought You don't have to be an actor or poker champion to improvise. You don't have to have "talent" and it doesn't have to come "naturally." Improvising is just a game. A game you play everyday, at that. The game of life . Not the board game. Impro-what? Improvisation is about communicating ideas without a script. Life doesn't come with a script . ...And life is a game! So, you can now hopefully see what I meant earlier. Improvisation feels natural, because it is! It's how you go about everything you do. So why take a class, if yourself everyday? Improv gives you a fresh, new take on your surroundings, as you play with what's around you It's not only creative, but you genuinely notice things about what's around you, you didn't before and how they connect and relate to one another--so it's intellectual, too This is good for doing anything, not just allowing ...
