I think this is the third or fourth time I'm kicking myself for selling it. I've sold it and bought it back at least 3 times i can remember 
I spent several hours yesterday on an old drawing and it's turning out pretty neat. I remember hearing somewhere (I think in a class) about how the strength in your hands adds to your ability to draw. Said that way though the concept isn't quite right. 
lemme see. 
) While you're doing that, you're excercising the muscles in your hand and increasing your brain-hand coordination. I did something similar to that while working in Painter last night. I was drawing this elaborately wavy hairdo using the same hand motions for the hair fibers over and over and over. Usually i get frustrated quickly and quit coloring with the tablet because my strokes don't go where i want them. I stuck with it this time and noticed my placement and strokes getting increasingly better. (keep in mind i was working on the hair for like 6 hours straight...i drew and redrew 3 different 'do's throughout the night.) The connection didn't hit me until later when I couldn't sleep. I decided to draw until I was tired, and so picked up my sketchbook. that drawing came together instantly...usually i have to fight to get the image in my mind down on the page...it was really neat. I guess it's just along the same lines as practicing. The more you practice the better you get because you're excercising those muscles...you're training them and your mind at the same time.
