I’m trying to learn both watercolor and digital art at the same time…it’s very difficult TwT videos like these are always a great help, despite the fact Ive been doing digital art for 1 1/2 years! So thank you so much for your guides. Especially the “Make Mistakes” part. That’s something I struggle with as a huge perfectionist, which makes me take month long breaks from art sometimes :( but I’m getting better!

Learned digital art because of you last 2019! went from using Huion pen tablet, then using photoshop and now using ipad air with procreate. Thank you so much nadia! you are a great teacher! <3

This was by FAR the best video out there explaining all this! Thank you so much, this is exactly the information I needed for my child who just got a drawing tablet but neither of us had a clue about any of it! So grateful to you!

It's still important to learn to use Pen Tablets I noticed. I started with the big girl wacom cintiq 22in in my high school design classroom. My ability to work from that down to a pen tablet made it 10x harder for learning when I graduated and got my own. It was awful, I do not suggest this at all.

As I recover from Neck surgery I finally find time to explore things I've always wanted to do but never had the chance because there was always something to do, Now I actually get to do things I want, not just career based.

I subscribed because you showed your bloopers at the end! This transcends your integrity in the video when you said don't be afraid to make mistakes! I feel sincerity in your words!

ive been doing digital art for 2 years, i have all three kinds of drawing hardware yet im watching this video 😂 gotta make sure i didnt do a mistake anywhere in the past

Ive been looking for a comprehensive video like this for ages. My daughter is very creative and I thought this was a good idea to teach her about tech and at the same time encourage creativity. I spent 2 days trying to figure it out and almost lost my mind. Thanks so much, this was a great help!! I can see you spent a lot of time making this informative and easy to understand, thanks again!

As a tireless starting artist and upcoming Mangaka, this video is invaluable. Thank you!!!

From the Microsoft side, they aren't targeted towards artist but do NOT get a slim pen as it's specific to newer models and requires special type of charger. In the Microsoft line of hardware all surface products support pen that includes tilt and pressure sensitivity. Microsoft Go 10.5" products might be a okay starter set all the way up to the surfacebook 15", these products are meant for office/portable pc/onenote use and have the appropriate cost high cost.

I woke up this morning flipping through my facebook and came across an ad for a digital art academy. I went to school for and have a degree in psychology I'm not using because I didn't want to study psychology or accounting I wanted to be an artist and was told it isn't a viable financial career to get into. I been searching for a purpose for years and years something that I can love to do and be passionate about. Seeing that ad today was a wake up call for me. I don't really care that I can't afford that fancy CA academy. I don't really care if I would make more money being a lawyer or accountant. I want to be an artist again. It's been so long since I've drawn or painted or did anything artistic I know I'm going to be rusty as hell. I'm a gamer and a lover of other digital art. I know next to nothing about how to even dive into this but thanks to this video I feel confident in knowing how and where to start. I just need a couple tools, to learn how to use them and jump in! I can use tutorials and perhaps down the road classes/lessons to fine tune my work. It's a marathon not a sprint. But I appreciate you making this video! I think you're doing a great service to people like me who want to start on a new path and need guidance! Thank you <3 I am subbed :)

Just a thing!! For people who dont know, Ibis Paint is now on Windows !!
Its 20 bucks tho but it really works just as well as it does on and Android tablet or and iPad
It came out like- a few days ago i think so its kinda obvious it wouldnt be mentioned here :']

[vivaciousalice]

Yayyy, exactly what I needed😱😍 An amazing new video from my most fav artist. Thanks so so much for making these amazing videos, Nadia. They are super helpful🤗💓

[gullyexplores]

I use Clip Studio Paint on a Samsung Galaxy tablet, I love it!

[prettyspectrum]

I always appreciate this channel and I'm on my journey on digital, painting is my main issue since I never painted before not even traditional. I'm glad that when I decided to change for CSP so did she and her tutorials are always nice

[shericreates]

Thank you so much for this! I have been following you for a long time but haven’t done much with learning where to start. I bought a tablet not knowing where to start and asking at the Apple store. I bought this dinky thing and is maybe useful for my grandchildren. LOL my business is taking a turn and I’m going to be diving deep into learning! So watch out here I come! Your videos are so easy to understand and follow along. Thank you for sharing this valuable information with all of us!❤️

[AlindaeliaGamez]

This video was beyond helpful! I am now watching videos to learn my tool instead of trial and error. Why did I not think to do this before you told me? haha!

[mattogie]

GREAT video!! I'm not a beginner myself, but still learned a lot!

[BellaGem]

thank you so much for this video :D was looking to try digital art. I have a severe injured drawing arm, and i always drew traditionally as I'm older and it was what we had in the 90s. Now however i have a sever injured drawing arm and cant hold a pencil, nor control over the strength of my hand like i did before my accident. I didn't want to give up. This video was the only one that answered a lot of my questions :) i will watch the other vids in the description also :D so very thankful for your vid and inspiration :)

[thomashartmann]

Great introduction! As a beginner myself I’m really looking forward to you next video. 🙏
