What is digital art?

Digital art is any artwork that draws upon digital technology as an essential part of its creative process.

It encompasses a wide range of techniques, from digital drawings, paintings and illustration, to photos, videos and even sculpture. All can be classed as digital art, so long as they’re created, enhanced or exhibited digitally.

Some artists may also produce prints and exhibit in-person, while others might go straight to a virtual or online environment.

In an increasingly online world where children might access a tablet as easily as a colouring book, it’s a gateway for many aspiring creatives. And as you’re not confined by physical materials or media, the possibilities can be seemingly endless.

Why do some people use it?

Some people might choose digital art or electronic painting for practical reasons - others for creative ones.
