The never-ending debate that digital art is not “art” has been on the rise recently.
Just like traditional art, there are different types of digital art. There is vector art, 2D digital art, 3D digital art, pixel art, and much more. The difficulty in both art essentially depends on the type of drawing.
One major difference is the presence of the undo button in digital art, which makes clearing your mistakes in the digital medium a lot easier than the traditional medium. You can go back and forth without making your work a mess.
The flexibility of working in layers in the digital medium gives you the liberty to actively make mistakes and correct them. This freedom, however, is limited in traditional art which makes it a lot more rigid when compared to digital art.
However, the textures in traditional art are almost too hard to achieve with digital art. Also, the hand control required for digital art is much more when compared to traditional art.
Degrading a form of art just because it looks easier is pointless. It’s always advisable to be open to experiments and suggestions before choosing mediums that work the best for you.
