I am having a hard time drawing from a tablet from scratch right now But drawing with pencil on a sketch pad, scanning it, and tracing the work with the tablet helped me remedy it quick. This might help people who are moving from trad. to digital
That is a good tip that I also used to use, but if you want to try and go completely digital I recommend practice. I am currently doing a 41 day drawing challenge, where I draw something digital each day to improve my art
Step 1: plug it into computer Step 2: Install driver Step 3: Install drawing program or open paint Step 4: draw circle Congratulations you are now a professional digital artist
@@zero_prfctn Not really, this dude probably looked for a drawing tablet online and google realized that a drawing tablet is a product Simply Spice is interested in and sent the info to youtube
So I saw this on my recommended videos and was like "do I need to watch this? I've been drawing on my tablet for a bit, I think I know the basics by now." but something was like "yeah but you don't want to miss some obvious beginner thing and stunt your growth, right?" so, unlike I normally would have done, I clicked it. The first 10 minutes was all stuff that I already knew, as expected, but then you mentioned the Intuos having a slot at the back with replacement nibs. Now THIS was new info to me, so I looked at the top and back of my tablet and lo and behold, a bunch of functions I wasn't aware of, AND three brand-new, untouched replacement nibs because the person I bought this from used probably never found them, either. Thank you, UA-cam algorithm, for recommending this, and thank you, Aaron, for reminding me why I should never think I have already mastered the basics.
This primer video is *gold* for anyone that's trying to decipher through how to even work with their tablet(s). I also have the Wacom Intuos and the Wacom 27qhd and have wondered about how to work between the two and/or how to use them (I am a total beginner when it comes to digital painting) and this video walks you through really practical, day-to-day details beyond what you might learn from a manual. This and a few other videos you have put together have been IMMENSELY helpful. I am now subscribed and a fan :) Thank you for publishing super helpful videos that are easy to follow.
Thank you my good sir ive been searching for over 3 hours now on how to use a drawing tablet etc and all i found was people talking about different tablets etc but not actually talking about what the tablet does and how to use one in general so this video is quite useful
My days as a gamer really helped when I shifted a drawing tablet. I rarely needed to look down and it felt oddly fine just looking at the screen. If you guys are interested I would recommend at least trying gaming to build those fine motor controls!
Are you sure it helps bcs I'm thinking of buying a huion h650p and I'm scared of wether it will be worth it and fun to use but I have seen playing video games from 2010 on my ps3 and 4 so would that help at the start
@@505reaper8 i purchased a tablet, I was scared too, but I got used to it really quick. now I can't without it I love doodling, drawing and painting with it. if you don't know what program to use I recommend krita. there are so many options available tho. have fun!
Just want to say I love your videos. I really feel like I'm learning something. As a long time traditional artist who is dipping their toes into digital they've been very helpful.
thanks for the info, very much appreciated. I just bought the basic type for starters. You are right about the alignment of a tablet with the screen. An awkward position would make it difficult on the cursor/screen orientation for newbies. I am pretty sure this would be much easier for me to draw and paint than by using a mouse which is so hard to control doing different strokes and lessen the need to make a customized brushes.
@@aaronrutten I still have a Wacom serial-port ArtPad 2 that I used during the Win 3.1 era. It would probably still work if I get around to resurrecting one of the dinosaur 486 laptops I used it with (just for giggles--nothing important mind you). I'd probably fashion a battery pack to run it since it relied on a wall wart plugged into its serial connector.
Hi Aaron, thanks for all you're still doing for the artists' community ! 🤓 My favorite tip : the settings that you can tune inside the software you are using to draw (Leonardo from GetLeonardo for example). It is so helpfull !.. and convenient !.. It makes a huge difference, for example in inking... no stress with the pressure sensitivity, it's as you custumised it ! One tip of mine that is so easy, usefull and enjoyable : suscribing to your channel ! It is the best way to win time, improve efficiency and quality's work ! 😁
Finally someone who taught me the most simplest thing how to click with a drawing tablet can't believe it took me like 20 videos just to find one who taught me how

Aaron Rutten hi Aaron, great video. I’m trying to find a device where my 8 old daughter can draw. Something beginner friendly. I bought a “drawing pad” but I returned it to the store. I’m looking for something simple to use for her (and me) but nice. Can you recommend me something?
Rose Destiny if you want something for beginners and something cheap like the apple pen because there are some free drawing apps like adobe draw medibang and some others and you don’t need to install a tablet if you just have a phone or a tablet with a stylus or pen. Hope I Could Help
Sometimes, when I've been working hot and heavy with my Huion, I suddenly notice that it has swiveled about thirty or forty degrees. This is actually a good thing because the wrist doesn't work as well in every orientation. Mostly, I like it squared up, but it can be a lot easier to paint sometimes when it's turned.
OMG on 6:20 I had so much problems on getting the sensors off from my tablet cause I didn't know what was going on with it cause I thought it was broken. I hardly drawn anything for almost a year now since I had trouble with it. but now seeing this! dude, you saved me! thank you so much for helping me on how to uninstall the touch screen so I can now focus on drawing again : D
So... I'm a dinosaur like someone said below, and literally JUST started dabbling in digital art (I snubbed it forever, thinking it was "cheating" and chose to torture myself with bamboo pens and crap my whole life). I didn't even know there were graphic tablets until two days ago, when I tried Krita for the first time with a MOUSE and realized that that couldn't be the way it worked. Your videos are lifesaving (I subbed, of course!). I ordered a Huion for my first tablet and it'll arrive tomorrow. Thank you for inspiring me and helping me learn a new medium! 31 isn't too old, is it? :)
Beginner: Drawing Tablet Intermediate: Mouse Advanced: Touch Pad Sorry for that, but I like your tutorial. I'm a beginner artist, & I think drawing with drawing tablet is easier. Thank You for your tutorial👍👍
Really great tips. I've always been a paper artist (amateur) but I just ordered a cheap tablet as an intro. This really helps me to set expectations. I plan to keep freehanding on pencil and paper, then scanning and using the tablet for "inking," shading, and coloring. Thank you!
Thank you so much! This video was excactly what I was looking for! i just purchased a Wacom tablet, and started to learn photoshop! It's like 20 years I've not been drawing, but decided it was about time to come back to it!
THANKS! Aaron I am attempting to deal better with PTSD by using a Cintiq 13 HD as a beginning artist...if I can use the word artist. I do appreciate your videos and hope to climb the learning curve. I appreciate it!
Is that squirrel painting available for purchase somewhere? It's awesome and I have a bunch of squirrels that visit every day so it'd be great to hang that on my wall.
Thank you so much ^^ I don't have a drawing tablet myself _yet_ but I'm planning to get one. Your vids give me confidence in my decision to get a tablet because I get worried most of the time about the prices to pay or if it's worth it, so I thank you for your efforts ^^
I've had my tablet (similar to the small one in the video) for 5 years now and I just found out that it comes with Pen nibs and Wi-Fi features lol.. subscribed for letting me know that
It's been a month since I used my drawing tablet.... I think I'll start over again so that's why I watched this video I'm a beginner again thanks for your help mister!
If you have a smaller tablet I recommend using mouse mode. Much more linear input compared to the tablet representing the whole screen. The only caveat is learning how to reposition your canvas etc.
Great video. I bought myself a Kenting tablet to get started. I really couldn't spend much and this basic one works fine for me. I'm slowly getting used to it and digging my artwork.
I honestly found drawing while looking at the screen extremely easy with my first non screen tablet. And that’s even with transitioning from a cintiq 13 hd (my first ever drawing tablet) to a small intuos.
Tysm! This really helped me because I really get inspired by digital art and I'm so inspired to do it myself! Of course, I'm still a kid and I don't have that money to get a Graphics Tablet with a screen, but I can afford a WACOM tablet without a screen. This helped me a lot and I'm now I feel a bit more educated :D
LOL i decided to watch this video for no reason. i only use mine to write math problems on PC screen yet i learned from this video that my nibs were inside the pen holder lmao. Thanks !!
Great tutorial! this is very helpful. Thank you. I am big a fan of XP-Pen and have been using them exclusively for the past 5 years, my last tablet was an Artist 15.6 Pro drawing tablet with screen 16" . As for software, most my art time I've been using Photoshop, but recently moved to Clip Studio Paint. I love both, there are features I miss from Photoshop, but Clip has nearly everything else. Photoshop is incredibly complex and intimidating as a beginner, it took me years to learn it, so I don't blame you for feeling pretty wary about it. Different drawing softwares excel for different styles of drawing, so the best software will be strongly based on the style of drawing you're doing, but nearly all software will work for any style, some just work smoother with certain styles.
i have 4 different monitors in a row. inagine default aspect ratio I got when connected wacom tablet for the first time :D it used all my horizontal resulution summed
Well Aaron, thanks for the video, I came on here looking for techniques on drawing with a tablet but this primer video has helped me understand the fundamentals and I'm smarter because of it lol, I've just bought the XP-Pen Deco 03 and its a very good tablet so, all I have to do now is see what features it will do that have been mentioned here. off for a lazy Sunday of relaxed learning.
I may be getting a Huion 1060 drawing tablet (has no screen) for Christmas from a friend (he is getting a new tablet, so he wants to hand it down to me since he knew I didn't have one and I pretty much can't afford a lot) so this video is helping quite a bit!
I recently got a Ugee tablet (10 in wide, and i think 5 in long for the drawing area?) and this helped. I got it in July and now I've gotten really used to it, and this helped me improve. I use Firealpaca, its similar to IbisPaint but a little more complicated and fewer brushes. I recommend it for beginners!
It really just feels like the cheaper and ultimately and fundamentally inferior option to having a proper inbuilt screen. Especially if you are just getting into it.
I appreciate your perspective on the tablet texture and nib friction. I see a lot of complaints but you put it in a physics perspective that kind of squashed those cons in my opinion. I think I'll finally get an intuos pro.
I think I broke the wacom pressure viewing bar thing. XD ^^'' when I press down, it doesn't show anything. in the start I thought I broke the pen bc when I drew I couldn't see anything, but realized I just had the same color on as the canvas had. but I can draw perfectly fine. it's just the bar that broke lol. but anyways, I love the tutorial! I have a hard time keeping attitention to vids, but I could actually hold my focus, and i didn't start to feel bored, and I learned a lot! I always thought that the program was bad at sensing pressure sentensivety. it was just the wacom settings heh.
If you have windows then you can use Microsoft paint/paint 3D as your first art program to get used to drawing and moving around the cursor with a pen.
Wow your tutorial helped I wanted a graphic tablet in my budget (60$) so I got the Wacom CTL-472 most people use Wacom cintiq pro which sucks they don’t tell how to use screenless tablets
Thanks this saved me from buying a "screen" tablet for 350 Eur. I'd rather get used to the "offset" between hand and eyes than deal with parallax or the tip not being where it is displayed on the screen (though I am aware of the irony that on a non-screen tablet the tip is NEVER on the place displayed on the screen, but you know what I mean :D)
So I listened to a techno set and I told to myself "OMG what a cool set with torial in the background" and when I came to youtube to save it I saw this video is runnin in the background.. :D
I have a huion hs610 and I use autodesk sketchbook on a MacBook Air, but for some reason there is no pressure, the line is the same thickness when I press hard and when I press light
Thank you for the tutorial!! I have one question: around 5:20 you say that you need to learn to draw with smaller gestures on a small tablet. I've been hearing all along that drawing from the wrist is not good and you need to use these big elbow/shoulder gestures when drawing. So what's up with that? Are large strokes really better or is it arbitrary and dependent on your desired output? I've been doing small doddles and illustrations on paper all my life and I've never really needed to use these broad arm movements... Does that make my technique bad? :(
I am having a hard time drawing from a tablet from scratch right now
But drawing with pencil on a sketch pad, scanning it, and tracing the work with the tablet helped me remedy it quick.
This might help people who are moving from trad. to digital
thx so much, that will help me!!
Definitely have to do that. I'll reserve pure digital for graphic design (I have an older, non-screen Wacom).
Thank you for the idea!
Try drawing with your shoulder
That is a good tip that I also used to use, but if you want to try and go completely digital I recommend practice. I am currently doing a 41 day drawing challenge, where I draw something digital each day to improve my art

I bought mine back in ... Dec. but have not used it because of where do I start?? :) looks like I've now get a better understanding of it, thank you
It really just feels like the cheaper and ultimately and fundamentally inferior option to having a proper inbuilt screen. Especially if you are just getting into it.
Ot depends on your budget,you can make great art with both,but bad screens will hinder you more than no screen,plus parallax sucks.
@@yesyes9698 you can see the screen without your hand in the way
I don't know how that guy could withstand the input lag. It would drive me nuts.
Well i didnt found a single tutorial but this is trully helpful tbh
I appreciate your perspective on the tablet texture and nib friction. I see a lot of complaints but you put it in a physics perspective that kind of squashed those cons in my opinion. I think I'll finally get an intuos pro.
Love your digital voice
I think I broke the wacom pressure viewing bar thing. XD ^^''
when I press down, it doesn't show anything.
in the start I thought I broke the pen bc when I drew I couldn't see anything, but realized I just had the same color on as the canvas had.
but I can draw perfectly fine.
it's just the bar that broke lol.
but anyways, I love the tutorial! I have a hard time keeping attitention to vids, but I could actually hold my focus, and i didn't start to feel bored, and I learned a lot! I always thought that the program was bad at sensing pressure sentensivety. it was just the wacom settings heh.
Recommended when ordered one. Now waiting impatiently to receive my tablet
I had no idea what I was doing and this really helped lol
Wow...so well done...Thank You
2:00 is there a tablet where you can push the cursor instead of having the whole screen as a pad?
If you have windows then you can use Microsoft paint/paint 3D as your first art program to get used to drawing and moving around the cursor with a pen.
Hello. Is it lagging begind when you move the pen or is it just in the video? 2:00
Wow your tutorial helped I wanted a graphic tablet in my budget (60$) so I got the Wacom CTL-472 most people use Wacom cintiq pro which sucks they don’t tell how to use screenless tablets
Hey man this video was amazing for me really really thks I hope you still drawing
Thanks this saved me from buying a "screen" tablet for 350 Eur. I'd rather get used to the "offset" between hand and eyes than deal with parallax or the tip not being where it is displayed on the screen (though I am aware of the irony that on a non-screen tablet the tip is NEVER on the place displayed on the screen, but you know what I mean :D)
So I listened to a techno set and I told to myself "OMG what a cool set with torial in the background" and when I came to youtube to save it I saw this video is runnin in the background.. :D
Does anyone know where those brushes are available?? 11:00 and 11:10
Very informative video. Thank you!
My jaw dropped when you showed where the extra tips are. REALLY! Thank you!
This is really helpful😊😊😊❤❤
My daughter wants the MobileStudio one or the Wacom Cintiq what one should my daughter get?
I'm way into my age to move from one form to another, but I was recommended this. Had to watch.
None of the settings work for my drawing tablet.
Might be using a uDraw Tablet but oh well.
I have a huion hs610 and I use autodesk sketchbook on a MacBook Air, but for some reason there is no pressure, the line is the same thickness when I press hard and when I press light
Great video. But what about left handers? I have a non LED screen and I don't know how to make it left handed.
Thank you for the tutorial!! I have one question: around 5:20 you say that you need to learn to draw with smaller gestures on a small tablet. I've been hearing all along that drawing from the wrist is not good and you need to use these big elbow/shoulder gestures when drawing. So what's up with that? Are large strokes really better or is it arbitrary and dependent on your desired output?
I've been doing small doddles and illustrations on paper all my life and I've never really needed to use these broad arm movements... Does that make my technique bad? :(
It doesn't make your technique bad, it just makes it more difficult to draw.
