I agree. I love working with computers and I think it gives opportunities to do things unattainable with traditional mediums. Although, I feel as though it is just as important to be able to understand how to do everything traditionally as well - how could you work with a computer and never drew using pencils, charcoal etc with your own hands?

Computers shouldn´t be banned, but its use is also a thing of practicing and experiencing, not just "i´ve got a PC here in my room, and i´m not afraid of using ist to do art, as well as it gives crtl+z and the redo/undo button"

Some could use the PC more easier than they would do with other mediums, thats not bad, but i couldn´t enjoy EVERYTHING done by pc. Just look around, now everybody is thinking they can draw and colourize, but they didnt use any pen before.
PC is for me a tool for aftergraduate a picture as for contrast, some corrections as black dots around the pics, a so on.

Yeah I completely understand your point. I think pc is actually something I use because you can re-do undo. I think that is why people feel more comfortable with it, because that helps you learn along the way. After awhile you won't need it as much etc. In a way it actually taught me how to paint. I took what I learned from it and applied it to traditional painting. Its funny how I realized it actually worked backwards in that respect.

I wouldn't ever give up on traditional mediums though. You have to remember your roots!
