aewrh alve asked:


I am currently pursuing my BFA in digital art, and am about half way through the program. I noticed that another in-state university offers a digital art MFA program, which definitely piqued my interest. My question is – Besides personal fulfillment, in the field of digital art is there any real advantage to me spending the additional 2 years to get the MFA instead of just keeping the BFA and starting a career? Thanks!

BaKa-NEKO asked:


There are quite a number of online sources to get digital art printed on canvas, but I can’t find anything for wood. Does anything exist for this? If there are, please leaves some links. I’d be forever indebted to you.
Yeah, on a smooth wooden surface, directly on the wood. No veneer or transfer paper or anything like that…

I mean, there has to be an online service for this kind of thing, right? I know the printers for this sort of work exist, so there has to be some way to get this done.

Espen asked:


I have Photoshop Elements, but I really need to know the opinions of everyone else.

I’ve been working on an illustrated graphic novel (the plotline and character descriptions) for about three or four years off and on..and then, I only used graphite..but now I have a 9 x 12 inch Adesso graphics tablet and I’d like to know the simplest, most effective program that would work with my tablet. Digital art as in ink and coloring scanned works..not photo-manipulation.

Thanks in advance!

RSJ asked:


The essay is in relation to freedom. I chose to look at digital art.

I was thinking I’d start with an introduction of what digital art is, going on to the history of digital art in the 50s/60s – perhaps then skip upto the 90s and use modern ‘art’/artists.
Through this essay I will write about Photoshop and other technology, while relating everything to freedom.

Sorry, I’m panicking. I don’t mean to put this question forward as a “do it for me” proposal, but does my process sound okay?
