In today's tech-savvy world, a graphic drawing tablet is a graphic designer's best friend. With thousands of features and functionality, a drawing tablet grants a vast spectrum of flexibility to a designer.

But every artist has a unique style. A drawing tablet that works for a particular graphic designer might not suit your style. Hence, choosing the right drawing tablet is important.

Graphics tablets offer intuitive controls over brushes that emulate natural media while increasing precision and speed.

Yesterday I received a XP-Pen Deco 01 V2 ( https://www.xp-pen.com/product/461.html ) drawing tablet as I had never used one before.

The XP-Pen Deco 01 V2 is a moderately priced drawing tablet for beginners and entry-level users. It is excellent for practice and to improve your drawing skills.

It has a high value of pressure sensitivity of 8,192 levels , 60 degrees of tilt function and a fantastic resolution of 5,080 LPI. The stylus is battery-free, though, which is an excellent plus-point.

The active area is 10 inches wide and 6.25 inches long. It does not have a battery, which means that you have to connect it with a power source that is a laptop or a computer.

The Deco 01 V2 is only 8mm in thickness and is designed for both right-handed as well as for left-handed individuals. It has eight customizable hotkeys and a USB-C port.

It is an excellent value for money tablet that has a variety of unique features for an entry-level user product.

They are better than a mouse when using programs like Photoshop. I have been experimenting with Photoshop recently and enjoying it more than I thought I would.

At first, I found the drawing tablet and stylus pen hard to use as it was new technology, though I soon got the hang of it and found that I liked using it. The XP-Pen tablet was easy to use, and I think its simplicity made me enjoy using it more.

I liked how I could write text with it in my handwriting. Using the stylus pen allowed me to draw in a more precise way. I expanded on my work with brushes, continued from last week, playing around with the different designs. I like the idea of sketching with a drawing tablet, using the Photoshop layers to trace images in a way that is akin to my actual sketching style. The ease of being able to draw directly into a computer program (rather than having to scan things in) also appeals to me.

Recently I have found that I am much less averse to creating art and designs digitally, possibly due to discovering all the artistic effects and possibilities available on certain digital programs. These programs have certain benefits that analogue methods don't (such as an ‘undo' button).

I'm still interested in analog, handmade methods of creation, but I am glad that I have stepped out of my comfort zone slightly to use digital programs and equipment – I am always interested in combining these two processes (analogue and digital). I could use a drawing tablet when working on my new brief, which is based on typography.

It is fun to draw on the digital tablet, and it is getting a little easier to get it to do what I want everytime I sit down.
