I bought a Wacom tablet a couple months ago because I'd been coveting it for a while and it went on sale. There was a bit of an issue actually getting it because Best Buy cancelled my order the day before the sale ended claiming they had none left. When I went in first thing the next morning lo and behold there were three of them sitting on the shelf. Needless to say, I was angry and not in the mood to leave without my Wacom at the sale price I should originally have had. Dean brought his camera and we took pictures of the ones on the shelf with the date from his cell phone, and we had the printout of the order and when it was cancelled. I expected the manager to fight with us about everything but since we had the evidence he just checked the flyer and rang things through. Yay!

Which brings me to the point of this post. I need practice using the tablet since I have no skill with it at all. Not to mention I haven't done any real drawing or painting in about 5 years and my skills (meagre as they are) are very rusty. SO, I am going to take some of my old doodles from highschool and recreate them in Photoshop using the tablet.

Exciting, no?

I started doing this a couple of weeks ago, but thanks to school I won't be able to finish until next month. So stay tuned.
