About six months ago, I bought a Wacom tablet, thinking it would help with graphics work. Since the kids were interested, I installed it on the family computer and haven't tried it much. They used it for about 2 weeks and then found other interests, and so today I finally got it installed and working on my Kubuntu system. Works pretty good.

I was expermineting with the pressure settings and the brushes and my test image started to take form into a recognizable shape - at least one recognizable here in Texas. So I finished out the image in an attempt to hone my skills. I'm no artist, and the result is nothing to write home about but since I've posted so rarely, I feel almost obligated to put it up in lieu of real content. So here it is:

Yes, I know the snout is too long...more like a possum than an armadillo. Again, I've never claimed to be an artist.
