The real artist has an obsession to try as many different mediums of expression as possible and a mouse and software are just another one.
If any work is appealing ( on any level) or beautiful to a viewer, do the unwashed masses really care what tools were used to make it... ?
Granted there are those that feel if they cant own and touch the "original" it isnt art ( as in "a print of a work " ) ...but i dont think that makes the value, expression-wise, of a particular work any less in the long run.
If my work above here was in a ( completed multi-page story ) comic book form ( it's only logical ending place as available path to profit ) would you NOT buy it because part or all of it was done digitally?..
That would be silly if the story was good and the art was good.
In fact i would be hard pressed to believe that most comic books these days are not colored digitally. ( they are probably drawn free hand still in most cases )
The only other possible reason it would matter is just personal preference ...a person likes the look of pencil strokes, etc. or other elements that are harder to pull off in consistant fasion ( with original style ) in a digital software.
If Sarah Palin says a lie on the campaign trail and you dont hear her say it ..is it not still a lie?
If Sarah Palin shits in the woods and you arent there to smell it does it not still stink as bad as George Bush's would, even tho republicans think their shit doesnt stink?
If you went blind.... would art work you have hanging on your wall no longer be art?
An electronic viewing device is merely the frame we view electronically stored art through.
Which reminds me ... i need to do a back-up ...lol
============================================
lol..you didnt get my fang up and i dont consider the question to be touchy by any means...in a truely free society ..no question should be touchy
and you can ask me anything.... i'm sorry if it came off as a bit of a smart ass response
If the power was out ...everything i said previously still applies...
If mankind lost power forever and had to relive in the dark ages, the artwork lost on electronic media forever would still be artwork.. just not viewable... THe vision and self-expression that created it would still have taken place.
The term "art" does not mean " Something i can always readily access"
I wasn't sure if that type of art work had any vaule if power was out and man kind sat around a dark comp trying to remember what their piece of art look like,
=============================================================
Well if mankind lost power for a long time or forever... i doubt any art would be on the top of the "value list " ...more like candle wax or batteries ...
I like art that is done by hand because 10,000 people don't have the same piece on their wall.
=====================================================
right ..which is what i meant earlier when i said : Granted there are those that feel if they cant own and touch the "original" it isnt art ( as in "a print of a work " ) .
....and you must be one of "them"
No stress ..we werent solving world problems here ..just discussing art theory and theory like art is never defined universally where we can accuse another of "wrong thinking"
Everyone will have their own opinions ...just so long as the ones that think like i do have cash is all i care about ...lol
if i have put you on edge by any of my responses you may reduce your stress levels by spanking me...
