New Technology Changes How We Create and Experience Fine Art

 Each year new software and programs that allow users to draw and paint using nothing but a mouse, electronic pad and pen, and a computer screen, are produced. The programs make it easier and quicker to create masterpieces and even share their work. Some people hate this new technology, others love it.
