I actually went from a non-screen tablet to a display monitor and ended up switching <i data-path-to-node=”5,0″ data-index-in-node=”86″>back to my old non-screen setup

For me, drawing directly on a screen meant my hand was always blocking half of my canvas while I worked, which drove me crazy. With a traditional pen tablet, your hand is down on the desk, and you get a completely unobstructed, full-screen view of your artwork on a nice, color-accurate monitor.

It definitely takes a couple of weeks to build that hand-eye coordination where you aren’t looking at your hand, but once it clicks, it feels incredibly natural. Plus, your back and neck will definitely thank you for keeping your head up
