I am persevering and continuing to practice my digital art. As I mentioned before, I am a traditional artist, so this art is something new for me. I love doing digital art, and am slowly discovering the good and the bad, (like deleting something I worked hours on, by accident!) of this art. It is a whole new branch on my tree of art. Just a different medium really.
I started traditional art by painting still-life, as I discovered it was the best way to learn art, and I have transferred that lesson to digital art.
I try to keep digital art ‘real’, and would be able to recreate each creation onto canvas using good old brush and paint. I do all my own drawings and I do not make use of photographs, unless they are my own traditional paintings. I did this in the art beneath. The guinea fowl at the back of the scones is a painting I did in acrylic paint, which I transferred into the digital art. I thought it made quite an interesting back-drop.
I enjoyed creating the drawings above and beneath, because of the ‘cake’ theme. This is the first time I have used cupcakes and scones in my art. These are nice pics for kitchens.

For how many years were you a traditional artist before you tried digital?

Traditional art thirty years. I started digital a year ago. It is most enjoyable but I always go back to traditional art.

I agree with you on making digital art look like traditional art. I prefer to do that with my art.. I do use reference photos to help outline
