For a lot of people, when they look at some digital art and then compare it with “traditional art” they feel like the digital art is cheating in some way.
For these people things are as simple as this – if you have money to
buy a graphics tablet you will be able to create digital art, if not
your work will suck. If they already have a tablet, the next step is to
buy the newest Photoshop and so on.
It is true that a person can do a lot of things
using these software solutions. If you are both good with a software and
drawing on a tablet it is possible to make great progress in the field
of digital art. Because of these reasons a lot of people think that you
must have a lot of money in order to become a digital artist.
This is probably one of the biggest reasons why people have such a huge misconception about digital art
and don’t want to acknowledge it as real. Some of the most common
arguments people have is that “real artists” cannot undo their mistakes
and that they need the technical knowledge to mix colors, pigments,
master brushes, pencils etc. They think that traditional artists always
create unique pieces while these so-called digital artists just buy
expensive tools that allow them to create something good without any
knowledge whatsoever.
If you are wondering whether this is true or not,
then I suggest you keep reading this post. If you don’t have any
knowledge about digital art and the process, here you will learn
everything about it. If you have some knowledge, but still feel like you
could do more I will give you valuable tips to understand where you are
going wrong. At the same time, I will try and explain all the
misconceptions you might have.
