Creating digital art in the style of traditional art is something of a tricky task. You’re probably used to working with pen and paper, like most of us. You can always install or plug in a drawing tablet, but even without the proper feedback, it can be tough to quantify your movements on screen. As you draw, sketch, or write on the tablet, the computer shows the result of your actions. It is much easier drawing on a tablet with a display built-in, because you can see your feedback in real-time. That’s what the Wacom One is supposed to do — it bridges the gap between screen and interactive tablet. More specifically, it’s an entry-level tablet and HD display designed for digital pen users for drawing, editing photos or even visual communication. It features compatibility with a wide range of systems including Windows, PC, Mac, Chromebook, Android and various smartphones. You plug it in, via USB-C, and immediately have a pen and paper like experience connected to your core system.
Right now, the Wacom One 12 — an 11.6-inch HD tablet and display — is $50 off, which brings the price down to $250 from $300. That’s a historic low for this device which is perfect for creatives of all types. It’s pretty much plug-and-play with the devices you have. You’ll experience precision drawing and pen performance, and the included pen’s shortcut buttons provide quick access to your favorite apps and tools. It’s excellent for work and play and for all ages. Plus, it’s portable, so you can bring it with you wherever you decide to work, or create.
Why would you want to buy the Wacom One 12 drawing tablet?
The Wacom One comes in a few styles and sizes. The model that’s on sale, however, is 11.6-inches with a full HD (1920 by 1080) LCD display. It connects via USB, or USB-C, to your devices and works as a secondary flat display that you can use to write, sketch or create. Imagine drawing a beautiful artistic scene which is reflected in your favorite drawing app on your computer. Or, editing photos in Photoshop and similar apps, all via the tablet.
This would make a fantastic gift for that creative person in your life. They can use the tablet to create digital art, notes, content, and more. It’s much more precise for handwork-prominent tasks than a mouse or keyboard. Moreover, it’s ideal for everyone, from professionals to casual artists. You don’t have to be a savant to get use out of it. Plus, it’s portable so you can pack it up in a backpack or day bag and take it with you to the library, coffee shop, or back and forth between work and home.
You’ll also gain access to loads of free software that can help supercharge your creativity. You can see some of the software included on the Wacom site. It comes with Clip Studio Paint Pro access, Explain Everything, Magma, Bamboo Paper, Limnu, Kami, Wacom Notes, Foxit, Affinity, Passpartout 2, Tophatch Concepts and more. Again, if you have no idea what any of those are — and I sure didn’t — you can read more at Wacom.
All in all, the current sale price drops the tablet to a reasonable $250. Don’t wait long, though. No idea how long this deal is sticking around.
