I was once told by Frank Franco that to get better at drawing, you need to draw outside your comfort zone. I told him, I never sketch in Photoshop. I draw, take a picture, and trace. He told me that I need to sketch in Photoshop. To push myself to do things that are awkward and uncomfortable.

I admit, I don't do it often. But pushing myself to do a doodle a day for the whole month of October made me want to try something. I originally drew and sketched the image in my sketchbook. I then drew it two ways. One was obviously very out of my comfort zone.

On the right, you can see what looks like the rest of my drawing. I use the pen tool with simulated pressure. This doesn't always work out the way I want it, but it's comfortable. On the left, you see a more raw version. I drew this with just the brush tool and my graphics table pen. No smooth lines here. It was frustrating. I wanted to give up. I thought, this is so ugly, I shouldn't post this.
