Been doing some more drawing practice in #Krita. Trying to get better at drawing the things that are in my head rather than just recreating things I can see. I've recently discovered the lquify tool. It's really nice for nudging my line work into the shape I actually wanted it, but it feels like a cheat.

Then again, if I limit myself to what I could have done with physical media, I suppose I should also forego layers and undo—which I'm absolutely not going to do. I guess there's nothing wrong with using the tools available to me. I just don't want it to become too much of a crutch.

Paradoxically, as I've started allowing myself to use it, I'm finding less and less that I actually need to. Using the liquefy tool is giving me the confidence to just put a line down, without stressing about it being perfect, because I know I can touch it up if necessary. As a result, I'm finding I like the way it looks more—probably because I'm not overthinking it.
