Are you more of a digital artist, or more of a do it with your hands kind of artist? I cant draw worth a s**t so all i do is computer graphics. Sorry if digital and Non-Digital sound weird, but i couldnt think of any other way to put it.

Definantly digital. I can't draw worth crap either. I am perfectly content mix-n-matching photoshop filters. There is probably hope for me in flash since it has the line smoothing button.

I think the term used for non-digital art is traditional media 3nodding

I guess I'm okay with both. I can sketch and ink with traditional media, and I colour or do vector art digitally. I'm not so great at colouring with traditional media though, can't paint for crap xp and I can't draw well on the computer, unless they're simple vectors.

I'm more of a non-digital person because to me the computer is just a "tool" and even though I use photoshop once in a while I still draw (or paint) whenever I have the time.

I do both, but I mostly work on the computer. A lot of employers like people who can do both, even if only a little by hand. So if you can do both, make sure to include both in your portfolio.

I go crazy if I'm not drawing something, and it's a bit hard to hide a computer from teachers when I'm supposed to be taking notes, so... I'm gonna say I'm more a traditional artist. I love doing stuff digitally too, though. It's easier to handle all those pretty colours. 3nodding

Technically, I work with both almost equally. I do most of my drawing and inking traditionally (this includes all my scribbles and sketches too), but I do almost all of my coloring digitally. I do plan on expanding my traditional works though.

*shrug* don't know... It depends on what I am trying to do... if I was actually drawing, then I am 99% a traditional artist, I love my paints and ink and brushes and pencils... I'm just not so great working digitaly at art.. it always comes out looking.. sad sweatdrop I' fine with pixel art... but nothing large, and I think I do pretty well with vecotor art as well.. just not people sweatdrop I guess if I am making a thing and not a person, I can usualy do better digitaly, but if I am cartooning, I would much rather work by hand heart

although... I do adore my digital camera *hugs camera*

I draw much better with a mechanical pencil and lined notebook paper or computer paper, so I chose "Non-digital." The main thing I do with computers is make icons. I used to oekaki, but I was constantly getting discouraged by my friends who are much better at it than I am.

Naturally I am more of a hand on artist. Though, lately I have been more digital. I feel the digital is taking over my creativity!

What if we are both... I draw pictures and make digital ones. Does Digital editing count as drawing or not?

I respect both, and enjoy doing both. I love drawing, but I'm never satisfied with anything I draw. But then again I'm not usually satisfied with anything I make via photoshop.
