The digital artist, also known as is a creative figure who uses digital tools for artistic production. In addition to mastering the use of the computer, a digital artist requires practical skill and fervent creativity. To create visual works of art, these creative people use computer graphics software, 3D modeling programs, animation tools and other technologies. Their experiences range from digital images to animations, interactive installations and generative works. The digital artist and the traditional artist operate in distinct ways, each with their own characteristics. In terms of means and tools, the latter uses physical media such as sheets of paper, pencils, watercolors, oils and brushes, while the digital artist uses exclusively computers, tablets and specific software to create digital works. The creative process also develops differently between the two. The traditional artist works manually, experimenting with physical materials and traditional techniques; the digital artist uses digital technology throughout the creative process, from creation to editing. Both types of artists have their own charm and contribute to the richness of artistic expression. Distribution and sharing of a physical artwork can be displayed in galleries, exhibitions or private collections, while digital art can be shared online on platforms, social media and websites, reaching a wide audience.

The interaction of the viewer with the traditional artist is mental, while digital art can be interactive, because it involves the viewer in new and dynamic ways.
