So you grow up with pen and paper and paint and then one day you start thinking about making ago at what you love as a means to living... and then you start listening to people who have been doing it for years and everyone is going digital and then you start thinking that maybe tinkering with photoshop and illustrator isn't enough and maybe the way forward is to go completely digital... Now don't get me wrong, I'm all for evolution and progression and change and pushing boundaries and adapting to the way the world is going but then how much of what you love do you lose?
Is creating an image on a computer anywhere comparable to the fortuity of chance on a blank piece of paper where the essence and the beauty is in the imperfections. We're imperfect beings and as such, surely, to assign ourselves the level of control of bezier curves and texture fills and the speed of the touch of a button somehow becomes an obstruction and a limitation... on the other hand, digitally speaking in cyber-space surely the tools can't possibly limit us in a world that is open to infinite possibilities? Maybe the answer lies in neither world as an obsolete but rather to transpose and combine one with the other, expansion of imaginative possibilities and the testing of creative boundaries... ???
