Be Brave and Give Digital Art a Try

Have you tried to create art using the computer, if you have you will know that it can be spectacular and if you have a creative spirit then the world is your oyster. Don't dismiss this lovely new way of working until you have put mouse to screen. Try to put aside your opinions until you have ventured into this new medium. I mainly use GIMP software which is free and is a joy to use. First make sure your screen canvas dimensions are large 3000 x 3000, at the least, and remember that when enlarged for printing it will appear simpler to the eye, therefore you can add more detail then you think.



Go on be brave and experiment you will begin to love this new way of working. Forget the problems from the drying times of oils, the buckling watercolour paper and the smudging of pastels and embrace the future.
