To draw with vectors is harder than drawing with pixels. To work with Bezier curves you need to understand, a bit, mathematically how they work, and then you may have a bit more control over them.
Even though, to start drawing with vectors only is very difficult, it's easier to have something to begin with, a drawing made by hand or with a tablet, then trace over that. I find out easier to draw Bezier curves with a mouse and keyboard rather than a tablet, with inkscape. I did this picture using inkscape, ( http://HaPK.deviantart.com/art/Mysticus-320210516?qo=1&catpath=gallery:hapk:51187&order=0&offset=1) but I did some sketches using mypaint and a tablet. Vectors need more skill, and are suitable for a range of things. But if you prefer using pixels that's ok too.
