Illustration Friday - lesson

I chose to show a knitting lesson. This is the first piece I've colored with my new (bottom of the line) graphics tablet. It does feel a lot less clumsy than a mouse, but I still have a lot to learn about using photoshop. As a watercolorist my natural tendency is to build color in light layers but I want to learn other approaches.

  3. You did a good job with your new tablet :o) It takes some getting used to, but I bet you will enjoy learning all that Photoshop offers. Real paints are still fun too of course!

    I remember my Mum teaching me how to knit, so this piece made me smile with happy memories.
