Chelsea🏳️⚧️🏳️🌈I broke out my drawing tablet for the first time in ages. First time I used it I kind of jumped head right into trying to draw with it without a clue what I was doing. Had lines with wildly uneven thickness evident of terrible pressure control. I learned you have to try and draw fast with the thing and can't really take your time. So I came up with an exercise to help myself get into it. This is a whole lot different than pencil and paper.
The exercise: Done in #Krita using a basic 5 size brush. The goal: Using my pen to create various sized strokes and create the same size consistently with a 40px brush drawing from down to up. Starting minimal and slowly moving up the sizes. Once I felt I had that mostly handled I moved on to increasing the size one at a time. I intend to repeat this exercise a few times. Here's a sample of what I've done. #drawing #art #digitalArt
You can see I really struggled to get some consistency as the lines got larger. I don't know why that is.
