This book shows how you don't have to be able to draw a straight line to be a computer artist! A comprehensive, practical handbook to help you to create art with a computer using step-by-step techniques. Many art and graphic design students are currently being taught how to illustrate and paint with a computer, but an increasing number of more 'traditional' artists are also using computers to create art digitally. How to Draw and Paint with Your Computer is specifically written for those artists -- amateur or professional -- who may be familiar with the use of traditional art media but who wish to learn how to use computers to create digital art. Most software manuals are written in a totally inaccessible way, whereas this book explains everything clearly and in layman's terms, using step-by-step how-to illustrations and visual techniques. * Covers a full range of artistic techniques, including painting and drawing, and shows how to produce similar results with computer software. * Build your own digital studio by learning which hardware and software are needed and how to use them. * Discover how to transform your on-screen artwork into fine art prints.
