Memory? Processor speed? Video card?
Though you should set up a webcam so we can see your art as you draw it.
One place for such is Livestream (www.livestream.com),
then you need a program to capture your camera/desktop with Livestream you can use their own Procaster (www.livestream.com/platform/procaster),
tho Procaster can be system heavy if used for desktop streaming (digital art), but since you're going for webcam, it shouldn't be a problem.
Another alternative which is much more lighter on the system is Manycam (www.manycam.com).
After that, if you chose to use Procaster, it will connect you to your account and your stream channel automatically, but if you chose to use Manycam,
you need to use Livestream's Webcaster to actually send your camera picture to the stream, the Webcaster is found in your channel options once you have a account and made a channel.
Also, when you create a channel on Livestream, DO NOT verify your channel, verified channel are bound to public channel rules because they will show on the public listing, aka no adult content and such,
unverified channels will stay private and you can do what you want on them.
