It wasn't straightforward for me to use, and I never got used to it. Also, Adobe products/software is so expensive that I even though I think I would enjoy using it for digital art/drawings I wouldn't and I use another program.

I like how easy it is to use on the iPad and how I'm able to create real and usable vector graphics while in a meeting or on the go. I'm able to get random ideas into realistic examples quickly.
