Bamboo Fun
For Christmas, dear daughter and family gave me a Bamboo Fun pen tablet to play with. Here's my first attempt:
It's amazing what you can do with even this relatively unsophisticated tablet. It's pressure sensitive so a light stroke gives you a light line and harder stroke a thicker line. There's lots of different pencil, brush, chalk, pastel, oil, acrylic, watercolour settings. It comes with Corel Painter Essentials 3 with which I did my flower and Photoshop Elements, which I have not yet tried.
Fun, indeed!!!
