Those are very good points, Andreia. "Fine Arts" could cover at least 70% of the art displayed here, so that label would be too broad. And mixed media -- digital and physical used together -- that would blow my original category ideas out the window. :/ On a side note, I've been considering mixing the two myself. Actually I started out that way, scanning in sketches then working further in a paint program. These days, I've been considering going the other direction, printing out a "sketch" and then working on it further with pencils or paints. There is a lot of difference in technique, though, between a Photoshop painting and an oil painting. There must be some way to categorize these differing approaches to make viewing easier -- for those times you want to see what people are doing in a paint program and times you want to see what people are doing on paper. Maybe it's three categories needed? "2D Digital" "2D Physical" "2D DigiPhysical"?? LOL! "Mixed"? Hey, help me out here! :)
