Do you accept or believe that fine art can be "created" digitally? Or is the only form of art, for you, created w/ "paint and canvas"?!?

Art is art in whatever media it is created. The computer does not create the idea or the image. Just like the canvas does not create the idea or the image.

Sure, as an artist I have no problem accepting digital art as fine art. The only thing I have an issue with is people who think digital art can replace traditional mediums, because it can replicate different effects to look like oil paint, watercolour or whatever. No it can't. You can always tell it's digital, especially when it's printed out! Besides the process of creating is so completely different. Personally I would never want to lose the direct physical experience of working with paint. The best digital art however takes advantage of the computer as a medium in it's own right, and doesn't pretend to be anything else.

Painting is a medium, digital art is another medium. Digital immitation of the painting techniques has little validity as art for me.
