I've been wondering about this for awhile, and the recent art thread planted the idea of asking here. My dd (12yo) is, among other things, an avid drawer. She has recently started using a Wacom "Bamboo Fun" tablet (on a Mac) for doing digital drawings on the computer. The tablet we have is an entry-level model (and several years old), and she is sometimes frustrated with (what she perceives as) its limitations. I have started looking into fancier tablets, but I'm a bit overwhelmed. In part because I am not sure how much of her frustration is truly due to limitations of the tablet, vs. her inexperience with the drawing software (Sketchbook and Photoshop, primarily).
Are there any families out there with experience who can offer advice? "Professional" grade tablets can get quite pricey, so before we upgrade, I'd like to have a better idea of what the critical issues are. Thanks!
