me when I feel like digital drawing:

  1. open Krita
  2. spend 2 hours getting a brush just right
  3. exhausted, only draw for 5 minutes before giving up and getting my physical sketchbook and a pencil

There's such a relief in using simple physical tools that have a very limited number of parameters and degrees of freedom to consider. Same with reading a book vs reading on a computer.

I've seen some artists who normally use advanced programs try MSPaint and make some amazing art.

My friend. I've seen artists friends spends days and hundreds of dollars, experimenting with paints, pencils, sharpening tools, brushes, etc. Have you seen how deep the brush material rabbit hole is?
