I prefer traditional art.
This is why: (I have not read all past post, sorry if something was already said. I will focus on my own opinion so if you love digital art stop reading. This is only my opinion)
1) Because i dont like technology. I understand it but I dont like it. I think to pass hours and hours looking at bright screen is harmful for my eyes. And belive me, is you do this profesionally you will pass all freaking day drawing or painting.
2) I dont know in the future, but nowadays digital art is only for digital viewers. If you print your painting and put it beside any traditional painting... idk. I dont like it. I think the result is so poor. There is no texture and if u dont print it extremly well you will see a lot of those little pixels in your lines.
3) You can draw extremly profesional only with 15 pounds. Spend 10 in good pencils and 5 in good paper. How many euros do I have to spend in a good tablet to make the feeling of drawing become real? And the Computer. The programs, the electricity... idk. I love to travel and is impossible for me to do this in that way.
4) Drawing from life and paint what I see is essential in my work. I just cant do it with a PC and a Tablet.
5) One big point about be professional at painting is to do big paintings and understand the paint, the color, the light. You cant understand all that in a PC because the color theory is not working on a screen. To make darker a color you click that color near the black point. In real life theres no pure black (despite some portraits) if you paint with black your painting will probably look dirty. Also, I can not painting in a screen more than 40x40cm (more or less?) And i saw in the past that to draw and paint in surfaces bigger than 50x50cm is something totally different. You see the proportions in a different way.
Hummm... i think thats all xdd sorry for the long text. Is something that i though so much and I'd like to participate
