* Digital painting is an art that is very similar to traditional drawing on papers, but the difference is that digital drawing is done through computer and digital programs such as Photoshop and Corel Draw, and digital painting uses modern technologies where watercolors and pigment colors used in traditional drawings replace digital colors.

 * Digital drawing requires several tools that depend on the digital painter if needed, but it is recommended in this type of drawing that the painter possess a light pen with which he can easily draw whatever he wants, and which is used for drawing conveying what is drawn directly through the movement of the hand on the computer, and it needs programs  Drawing that corresponds to the light pen, such as the Photoshop program, which gives very sensitive movements that simulate the pressure of the painter's hand on the pen in terms of the small and large of the drawing brush, in terms of colors and accuracy.

 * Types of optical pens differ according to the different manufacturers of them, the most famous of which is the optical pen from (WACOM) company, which is one of the best types and the method of drawing is by holding this pen and then drawing on its board, taking into account the focus on the computer screen, as everything is written by hand  On this board, it is transmitted directly on the computer screen by optical drawing programs on the computer (Photoshop, Corel Draw, Painter, and Painter) and other programs, taking into account the choice of the location of light and shadow on the drawing.

 * Digital drawing depends entirely on the painter's computer program in the formation of artboards, but the painter's use of the computer and its programs in drawing paintings does not mean that the computer is the one who draws the entire painting, as many people assume that the digital painter does not do anything but that the computer  He is the one who draws and colors in certain minutes without the painter's intervention.  Digital painter does not need to buy colors and drawing tools which are very expensive.

 * Tools in digital drawing (computer, paint program, and stylus) provide the artist with a clean drawing environment free from dirt and color slippery.  Digital painting allows the artist to print his painting on any type of canvas, paper or other material and in the size he wants, which gives him exceptionalism in terms of mass production.  Digital painting is widely spread in Western countries, where it is used in many fields such as cinema, programs, digital games, and websites.  Digital painting is used in the field of films, especially those dealing with historical events and science fiction, an advantage that cannot be achieved with traditional painting.
