Alas, I am a retired writer/artist, so I have sufficient (2), but
absolutely no (1) or (3), so I consider neither of those to be
trivial. ;)
Also, most of the time, I'd want a uniformly thin line, not one that's
thicker at the bottom.
If you figure it out, I'll love you forever. I'm trying to avoid
paying $400 for Studio Artist just to illustrate the book I wrote for
my grandchildren.
Thank you for any help you can provide.
