Traditional Art Vs Digital Art

What is art? Usually, the word “art” is associated with painting, or the class that was required in school, but that is not always the case. There are far more mediums and styles of art than one can imagine. There are two major groups of art, traditional and digital. Traditional includes the majority of the arts that requires being hands-on and having a physical result, such as a painted canvas, or a clay sculpture. Digital art uses a computer to create the art, such as using a drawing tablet. Using 3D sculpting program, such as Blender, or ZBrush, are also digital art forms. While these two concepts sound completely different, they also jive together to make the best products. Without the computer, there would not be digital art, and today’s

Art began becoming more relevant in history, giving periods and eras an image to base off of. From hieroglyphics, to The Last Supper, history has been expressed through the different art forms created, and today it has become a rarity while it has also grown to be the most popular.

They also take up a lot of space, not including the extra space surrounding them so they don’t get further damaged, which could be troubling if there is not a enough spacegiven for protection. Another issue with traditional art is that because today 's technology has taken over a majority of the world in some way. This makes traditional art lose interest, and it no longer gets focused on for innovation. As time moves, everything evolves, and that also means

For example, many digital projects get sketched out on paper before the artist even touches a computer, or, the whole design is created on paper, and then transferred to be digital for its most optimal compatibility for anything it could be needed for. This does not mean that digital is the only way to go, and it does not mean traditional art cannot be considered a finished product, but it is not uncommon for digital designs to start off with the traditional ways first. Sometimes traditional art gets improved by digital art as well. A digital design could be printed out, and applied to a traditional
