Believe me bro mejo nakakadepress yung feeling na kahit anong gawin kong magdrawing/sketch ngayon via freehand eh "nangangalay" na yung kamay ko after a while.. imagine yung inis ko whenever that happens, its like nawala yung natural talent mo all because I embrace technology... and since its also part of my job to do so, pero alam ko naman na I could've maintained it if I get to do it all the time than spend the art with the help of gadgetry.
tama ka iba pa rin ang feeling pag freehand ang sketches/illustration mo.. yung tactile response ng lapis sa papel, yung autonomous sensory-meridian response mo kapag naririnig mo yung tunog nung lead scraping on paper.. then ofcourse yung finish product, it can be really satisfying to do so.
using digital means kasi eh nawawala na yung
"talent" behind it.. all that remain is the
"skill" of the digital artist on the use of software and hardware altogether to create an artwork.. sa digital art yung mga smudge, shadows and depth eh pwede na gawin via filters so meaning even a person who never really tried drawing via hand can create nice artworks with smudges, shadows and depth via those filters sa software.. ibig sabihin hindi na talent ang labanan eh.. "skill" na.
and we all know that
anybody can learn Adobe Illustrator or Photoshop.. youtube and google lang yan.
So personally I prefer traditional art, pero syempre hindi natin mapipigilan ang technology so kailangan din natin sumabay, ang mali ko lang napabayaan ko yung traditional talent and skills ko.. masyado ako naaliw sa advent of digital art.
kung tutuusin naman pwedeng
hybrid eh.. parang yung ginagawa ko, I sketch ideas first traditionally then convert them into vexel or vector art.
