one of the things that is hard to get past, as an adult learning art, is that my 'mind's eye' is not accurate. it can picture what i want to do, but it does not picture the process to get there, so the end result i'm aiming towards is essentially not useful.

if you can't build the process to get there, you can't do it.

this is also true in programming, but i learned that at a far younger age so i didn't need to unpack that before learning all the core fundamentals.

so the important part is to build the toolbox up, over time, so that when the time comes to try again, i will have those available to me.

my overall structure has improved a lot recently (even if some of the same problems are still there) but i'm very lacking in technique and knowledge

like it just intuitively knows that a human did not write it.

I want to look for a new (Linux-compatible) drawing tablet, since the one I have is a little old and crusty and doesn't even have tilt support ahaha. Any recommendations out there?

(not really in the budget for one with a screen right now, think it's better for me to have one without atm tbh)
