WHAT ARE WE LEARNING: How to use our new XP Pen Artist Pro V2 drawing tablets.
WHY IS IT IMPORTANT: These tablets are a simple but versatile way to create digital drawings. They are compatible with Adobe Photoshop, and you can draw right on their screens. These will be the tablets that we will be using for most of our drawing exercises going forward.
HOW WILL MY TEACHER KNOW WHAT I LEARNED: You will follow procedures to check out a tablet and use it to create figure drawings in Photoshop.
