I Won't Choose Sides

There has always been this battle between pure art and illustration and then there is the battle between digital and traditional media. Let me establish right now, I LOVE both.  I love the texture and expression and variety just as much in one as the other. Most artists line up on one side or the other. meh. I get bored too easily to totally devote myself to one or the other. I understand the perks to each. Traditional has original works- it can't be copied- it's unique and no one can have another one.  Beautiful-  I love digital as well. It's flexible and dynamic. Ideas flow quickly. Nothing stops you from changing those ideas and there's no worry about waiting for paint to dry too slow or too quick. There are giants on either side of the line. Men and women I admire and read up on. Like Nick Harris here. He makes me smile.


Enjoy the art. Keep your preferences, but appreciate the work that goes into both. It's way too awesome not too.
