"Digital artists enlist a new set of tools for the making of their art. Tools understood to be complex, cold, unforgiving, and restrictive. You have to use digital things just the right way or the whole mechanism freezes up - and then what?
Can images made by such mechanized and restrictive means be art? Clearly, this understanding of computers is incomplete, which sometimes causes us to overlook the art and instead focus on how, and by what tools, the images are made.

However, lacking the comfort of "knowing" the deepest aspects of the tools should not be allowed to distract us from "understanding" the art. Regardless of our knowledge of the process and tools used to make art, the age-old rules of composition, color theory, quality of the line, and the rhythm of patterns remain in force.
One does not need to know how an image was made in order to value it, aesthetically."

Size does matter...

THE BETTER YOU LOOK THE MORE YOU SEE

Thanks for your feedback malo,

Many of my images are printed on canvas 116x81cm or bigger 146x97cm and that gives a good look at the details.

And impressive images that, of course, belong here :). Curious to know what size are they usually?
