Well I had many years of traditional art background and training. But I also have been using computers to make digital art since I was eight. I don't have many of my traditional media images here, but you can see them on my website if you're bored :) The tools are different but the language of art remains constant. Colour, balance, composition, light and action. Irregardless of media those are the issues that any artist keeps coming back to. I work in many different media, from clay to pixels and no matter the technical issues those are the things I always work on. So my 6 years of traditional art training have been a huge boon to me as an artist ... I may have hated the restrictions at the time, but now I think nice thoughts about my teacher Mr Young every time I'm critiquing one of my pieces.
