IÂ’m new to art but want to see if I can take a crack at it. IÂ’m a graphite artist outside of the internet and figured IÂ’d like to try something new. Is there a non-internet program anyone recommends? IÂ’m only asking because we donÂ’t use WiFi, we use our cell phone hotspots when we use the computer. So limiting data usage would be best. IÂ’d love something to work on with my computer.
Also, how do stock linearts work with computer art programs? Do you have to crop out the lines from the ‘white backgrounds’ and paste them in the program to start with?
IÂ’m trying to get an idea how in depth this is gonna be to start with. Thank you!

I really like Gimp. It's a free program that you download. Has almost all the features PS does, but a tad less refined in my opinion.
Ive never done a lineart, so can't help there. Maybe someone will chime in for that part. :D

I like gimp and photoshop. As Jello said, Gimp is really nice because it is free and has a lot of the features that PS has, but PS is definitely a step up.
Linearts work the same way as a coloring book. You download the lines and open it in your art program. It will come up as just the lines, with a transparent background. Then you just fill them in. :)

Is it bad that I just now remembered I have this question in the forum?
Ok, IÂ’ve becer heard of gimp. I have heard of PS. Can I ask if PS or PS Elements are any different when comparared to features?
And IÂ’m assuming I need an art tablet? Do the art tablets require internet access to use or can I use one offline but plugged into my laptop?
Sorry for all the questions. Thank you for your help!
