I think it’s funny when people want you to draw for free because digital art is “easy” or “easy for you” and I always say, “glad it’s easy that will make it easier to do it yourself”

"Digital art is so easy, it isn't even real art"
_well then you do it_

What people expect: He's been drawing for seven years. He must be able to draw fast.
Reality: *takes five minutes to draw a single line

I draw digitally and I can confirm this: while I drink my coffee and have my butler give me a foot wash, my computer creates an image for me in its own art style that I can then post online.

can't forget the 'animate' button that just makes your character move and do stuff

The difficulty of digital art is controlling the textures and blending. Because you can't really feel the medium, it's on the screen, it makes it hard to get it right. Also choosing colours is hard because your options are limitless. With paints or pencil crayons you're limited to colour palette someone else has designed to work together. I've seen beginner digital artists either use too many saturated colours or too many dull muddy colours.

I love that my graphic design professor thinks digital art isn't real art, "it's all done by the computer." SIR YOU'RE A GRAPHIC DESIGNER.

i think the only thing about digital art that makes it “easier” than traditional art is infinite erasing and the existence of layers, but that’s definitely traded off with the learning curve and actually knowing how to use all the tools that the software gives you. y’all do have my respect.

As a traditional artist that switched to digital, it is most definitely hard, just not in the same ways traditional is. For digital, you get a lot of undo and erasing and stuff, but learning how to draw with a totally different texture and software is incredibly difficult. I think it depends a lot on what you value in art.

My mom felt like she saw the 5th dimension when I drew a single line on the pen tablet.

"Digital art isn't real art-"

*Okay, I guess digitally typed papers aren't real essays then...*

This is literally my mum 😭
She got into these coloring books over the past few months and I helped her pick out coloring pencils since even though I'm a digital artist, I still had a good idea of what pencils to get for her. I even got a book of my own so I could color with her from time to time.
Then one day as we're sitting there, she tells me how traditional art is basically the only way to make real art, that it takes real effort when you're doing it traditionally to make it come out looking good, and that people who use technology and drawing pads etc, like me, have it easy and that we're not making "real art."
So I tell her straight out how I can spend anywhere from two hours in a simple drawing to upwards of 12 or more on a more serious one and she basically just kept making excuses as to why it's still so easy for digital artists to make art and how it's not real art. I even let her test my drawing tablet and even she said she didn't know how I could draw on it I-- 😭😭😭

Im a digital artist. I can confirm that this is real.

Digital art is like making clothes with a sewing machine. It's a different skillset than traditional methods, and in many ways it's less tedious, but it would be ridiculous to say "clothes made with a sewing machine aren't real clothes"

[namoclock]

as a traditional and digital artist, i will say that digital is definitely easier- its MADE to be easier, more practical, cheaper in the long run and offers a billion options to choose from.
but like any art form, if you dont learn, practice and apply, you're no good. its a more than valid art form.

Wait digital artists ACTUALLY move their cursor? I thought they just stare at their screen and the computer will read their mind and paint it for them

[DUCK-otsl]

The fact that an ibis paint ad came before the ad is just * chefs kiss *

[apollodavis]

the only advantage is multiple layers and the holy Ctrl Z

I'm a 3D artist and usually I'm just using mental projection into the AI to produce a high quality, realistic characters
