me when I feel like digital drawing:

open Krita

spend 2 hours getting a brush just right

exhausted, only paint for 5 minutes before giving up and getting my physical sketchbook and a pencil

There’s such a relief in using simple physical tools that have a very limited number of parameters and degrees of freedom to consider. Same reading a book vs reading on a computer.

My friend. I’ve seen artists friends spends days and hundreds of dollars, experimenting with paints, pencils, sharpening tools, brushes, etc. Have you seen how deep the brush material rabbit hole is?
