New tool for artists!

<p>Hey have you guys seen this new drawing tool from Wacom? It's called the Inkling and it looks like it would be really useful if I just knew how to draw. :/ Here's the link:</p>

<p>** Disclaimer ** I have no connection with Wacom or this product... I just thought it was cool and maybe some artists here might like to know about it.</p>

<p>Best,
Wheaty</p>

<p>cool, D is practice draw by tablet and may love this tool.
Will send her the link, it seems expensive!</p>

<p>Wheaty…my husband will looooove this. He draws constantly. It will be perfect for his comics. I think I might keep it a secret and surprise him with a gift.</p>

<p>mmmmmm same price as new kindle fire?
[Kindle</a> Fire - Full Color Kindle with 7" Multi-Touch Display, Wi-Fi](<a href=“http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0051VVOB2/?tag=googhydr-20&hvadid=14069380315&ref=pd_sl_9f3d4b8qyl_b]Kindle”>http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0051VVOB2/?tag=googhydr-20&hvadid=14069380315&ref=pd_sl_9f3d4b8qyl_b)
what is going on…
are they like, OPEC or UN of holiday spending?</p>

<p>Drae,
I was thinking the same thing - a cool gift for the artist in the family!</p>

<p>Bears,
I saw the Kindle Fire announcement right after I posted about the Wacom Inkling and I thought the same thing. 200 bucks must be the new price/pain threshold.</p>

<p>D would love that, sent her the link.</p>

<p>Wheaty:
you live in LA, right?
Not sure if this is something good, I Hijack your thread again!</p>

<p>[Mentoring</a> | Mentoring | College Art Association | CAA | Advancing the history, interpretation, and practice of the visual arts for over a century](<a href=“http://www.collegeart.org/mentoring/]Mentoring”>http://www.collegeart.org/mentoring/)</p>

<p>Anyone think this is something worth?</p>

<p>Loveblue the hijacker,</p>

<p>Yes this is a really good thing. I’ve never talked about CAA because I thought everyone here knew about it through their respective schools. If your daughter isn’t a member of CAA she should definitely check it out.</p>

<p>Last year’s show was in NYC (at the Javits I think) and this one is in LA. My daughter will go with most of the kids in her studio classes.</p>

<p>Best,
Wheaty</p>

<p>I didn’t know CAA, no idea what that is :—(
I think D didn’t know either. I will let her know.
I am very limited on art related things and am trying to catch up. It is hard to a foreigner, I came from China.
Last night I saw this and it is in LA, then post it here. Now I really feel myself like a fool!</p>

<p>Loveblue,</p>

<p>No no, the fault is mine for making the assumption that CAA was common knowledge. If you didn’t know about that means many others don’t either. I’ll write a post about it this afternoon.</p>

<p>THANK!
I did learnt a lot from your post!</p>

<p>I interned for a silk screen printer who drew her own illustrations on one of these (or a similar product). It’s extremely useful, especially for that purpose because she had to print her final design onto transparency.</p>
