The Little Pig Ran Home

So, A few little doodles in on my new tablet, and I'm slowly getting a hang for it.

I do find myself doing things that I would do on my mouse track pad that do not work on the tablet, like when I move my finger across I'll pick it up and back track so I can continue with more space. When you do that on the tablet it will take you to the corner of your screen, because (slap forehead) the tablet is configured to match your screen. So a point on the tablet is a direct match to your screen. I knoooooow this, yet force of habit will have me doing it over and over again.

I'm learning right, so it's ok, but it's frustrating.

I was quite bored doing the work I am suppose to be working on (creating musical notes to go into the book I've illustrated and am now putting together roughly in InDesign) So I took a little time (I really don't want to say how much... it was more than an hour...) to play around some more.

And here is the result:

With a little twiggy

You are fat

but ain't no brat

Happy Piggy

With a little twiggy

Things I find difficult? Utilizing multitudes of layers. It feels unnatural, but this whole process does.

I've been looking at tutorials here and there for advise tips and general knowledge. but was getting frustrated because I felt I knew to much and to little. I was getting impatient hearing the stuff I knew already. And impatient is the WORST state to be in when trying to learn something new.

So my new approach: Figure it out your damn old self!

at least for now...
