Setting Up and Using Wacom On-Screen Controls, With Multiple Applications

It has been a while since I did a tutorial for Wacom On-Screen controls. I have recently painted with Rebelle software and I like it, so I decided to set up Wacom’s on-screen controls for Rebelle that are different from the ones I have set up for Painter. It is surprisingly easy, so I am sharing the process with you. I hope you enjoy it.

I thought you might like to see my first few images done in Rebelle watercolors.

Practice Enso (From Wikipedia: In Zen, an ensō ( , “circular form”)[1] is a circle hand-drawn in one or two uninhibited brushstrokes to express a moment when the mind is free to let the body create.)

Well, that’s all folks. Hope you enjoyed the videos and the latest work from Rebelle.

  1. Oh my, such beautiful paintings Skip, each and every one! I’m so glad you are now working in Rebelle, and can’t wait to see more of your creations.


  2. I just wanted to say how nice it was to see your email. I have wondered how our dear painting teacher has been…and I am delighted to see you have been having a delightfully creative time, making wonderful and pleasing images!! I love them all….!
    Thank you for sharing!


  3. Skip,

    So good to get a post from you again…I always enjoy seeing what you have created, and was just delighted to see these Rebelle watercolors! I have been contemplating trying that software as I read that it was simpler and thus more enjoyable to use than Painter. Your artwork using these digital programs is exceptional, Skip, and especially so when you paint with the watercolor brushes. You have such talent and a facility that brings out the best in these software programs…most definitely at mastery level. Needless to say, I am very inspired to try Rebelle now, and am looking forward to seeing more of your work with that program. Thanks so much for sharing! Just beautiful!
