I don't often venture into composing images wholly through digital processes - but I had some time one afternoon so I thought I'd have a play. I must say their ok, it was interesting to have a go, but to me they lack a sense of crafting or care. They're very stale, and after the conversation of gouache/hand-drawn elements in my collage adding more sense of the handmade, personal, charm ect. I think having this aspect to my work has become even more pertinent for me.
On the other hand, I have found an advantage to creating my images digitally - which is that it allows me to play around a lot with layout and composition. Personally I prefer the composition and use of format in these images to my handmade ones - something worth considering.
