The digital drawing

What is digital drawing:

 

The digital drawing is like a drawing on paper or board but the support is different.

Instead of drawing on a sheet or a board, the drawing is done on a specific screen called: graphics tablet.

Instead of a pencil or a brush, the tool is a stylus which allows the screen to detect the line and the pressure of the hand and converts the line back into a computer format.

 

Why did you choose digital drawing:

 

For my Céline workshop, I chose to favor digital drawing forits various advantages:

 

  • Being able to offer a drawing at a low price: thanks to digital technology, a designer's drawings become much more affordable. Even if a drawing represents hours or even dozens of hours of work, once made it can adapt to different sizes or different supports and thus be reusable.

 

  • Adaptability according to everyone's tastes, wishes and budget: as explained above, the digital format can be reproduced in various formats and media.

 

  • Practicality: thanks to the computer tool, if you make a mistake on a line or a color, don't worry, just click on a button to go back and erase your mistake, the advantage of overlays Layers also allow you to avoid missing a drawing and having to redo everything.

      This advantage allows me to become more demanding and perfectionist in my workand helps me a lot to improve myself.

 

  • Fieldpossibilities: depending on the drawing software you use, there are a multitude of pencils, brushes, colors, gradients, effects that you can use which makes drawing both fun and yourself a perfectionist.

 

The inconvenients :

  • The cost: A good computer tool is expensive, just like drawing software.

  • Contact with matter: for my part, I really like drawing for contact with matter. When I draw in Indian ink, I make my own ink and the feeling of the pencil on the sheet is also a pleasure.

      Which means that, even if I mainly work on the computer tool inl'Atelier de   Céline, I also draw and paint on sheet or board.
