Does anyone know where I could find a free/used drawing tablet?
Hey everyone, I’m hoping someone here might know of a place I could reach out to.
My PC mouse recently broke to the point that I can’t really do digital art anymore. I’ve wanted a drawing tablet for a long time, but my mom and I are both disabled and live on a very fixed income of less than $20,000 a year, so we're unfortunately not able to afford one.
I’m trying to get back into drawing and hopefully start making YouTube videos and art that could eventually help us financially. I’m not looking for anything fancy; even an older or used XP-Pen, Huion, Wacom, or similar tablet would give me the ability to start creating again.
Does anyone know of Reddit communities, giveaways, donation programs, artists, companies, or places I could email that sometimes help people in situations like mine with used or donated art equipment? I've emailed XP-Pen, and that's it so far.
And if someone happens to have an old tablet they're no longer using, I'd definitely be interested as well. I'm willing to show my artwork and what I plan to do with it, and I’d genuinely put it to use.
I'm really embarrassed to even post this, but I figured asking was better than giving up.
Thank you to anyone who can point me in the right direction.
