Digital artist - Definition

With the advent of readily available computer technology, a new generation of digital artists has emerged that uses computer graphics software, digital photography technology and computer assisted painting to create innovative art.

The innovation is not only in the technology, but in the collaborative aspects of their work. Digital media lends itself to sharing and augumenting by a creative effort similar to the open source movement, and the creative commons in which users can collaborate in a project to create unique pieces of art.
