No, traditional drawings are cheap, but they take up space.
I don’t know what it would take me to draw more. I am a hobby binger. I get into textiles obsessively, then video games, then maybe drawing or something else, music… I just obsess over one thing at a time. I think it was good company and comfort that got me into it before. I am in a similar situation right now. Surrounded by people doing other things so I can chat and listen to people around me, and not have a sore back when I get up again 🥴.
I don’t know how to ensure all those items, though…
The cool thing about buying an ipad to draw on is that it covers a lot of hobbies, cause you can write, and plan other projects and surf the net etc... with it. It's not a bad idea. Maybe go used?
I’m going to wait and see if I get myself back into drawing. If I do, I will look into a new iPad. Otherwise, it just isn’t worth the expense.
