This is a product that has not only built a reputation for high performance on it's own, it's also backed by the reputation of Amazon. The entertainment value along is enough to make your artisitic aquaintance go ga ga, but add a drawing app and they will go stone crazy.
With 8 GB of storage already on-board, there's plenty of room to create and store a bunch of drawings and sketches. But add to that the fact that you can get up to 128 GB of more storage with an microSD card and you get the WOW factor. It's also fast and gives you up to 7 hours of battery power.
The reason I bought my tablet (it's not this one, it's a Nextbook. This one is much better), was to use it for sketching ideas and to ink pencil drawings without having to buy one those expensive ones made just to do that. Like a Wacom. I use a free drawing app called "Sketchbook". You can get a version of it for this by clicking here. It is a free download. You could load it on this for your friend or let them know where they can get it.
