A blog dedicated to digital artists

We asked Liza about her art, creative process, and inspirations.

We asked Sofia about her art, creative process, and inspirations.

Tips & Tools
Time for real talk – making your first dollar with your digital art is a bigger deal than people give it credit for. That first sale isn’t just a transaction but it’s also a signal that your iPad drawings can actually be more than your hobby. It means someone saw value in something you created out of pixels and passion. That moment, no matter how small, means you’re not just making art but building a creative life that others want to be part of. But how do you make your first dollar with your digital art?
One of the most straightforward ways to make money as a digital artist is by selling high-quality art prints. Whether you're just starting out or already dreaming of going full-time, this is a great income stream to tap into. Here’s the 10 steps it takes to sell digital art prints online, from creating the file to packaging and shipping your first order.
In this guide, we’re answering the internet’s most-searched questions — from how much digital artists earn, to where they sell their work, to whether the career is even worth it. Spoiler: it can be. And if you’re ready to get started, we’ll show you how to license your work and let us handle the print sales for you.
Lately, we’ve been thinking about how we can go beyond visibility and start creating real financial opportunities for digital artists. We’re thrilled to finally share that… we’re launching the DAB Print Shop! We’re now offering selected artists the chance to license their work through us and have it featured as limited edition prints right here on Digital Arts Blog. That means you can earn from your art — while we take care of the rest.
Licensing can be a great way to earn money from your art — but it’s not for everyone. Some artists love it. Others feel it takes them too far from their creative vision. And both perspectives are totally valid. Diversifying your income gives you a safety net, and licensing is one option worth knowing more about.
When Digital Arts Blog was born, it was tiny. Like most blogs, we started with five readers. And this past week, we got featured in FeedSpot’s Top 70 New York Art Blogs What an honor! If there’s one takeaway I hope you leave with, it’s this: Keep going.
You’re applying for jobs, pouring your soul into your art, scrolling through endless LinkedIn posts of people “thriving,” and wondering when your turn will come. Maybe you’ve graduated from one of the top art schools. Maybe you’ve freelanced here and there. Maybe you’ve worked in hospitality to make ends meet, and you’re tired of pretending you love it. Meanwhile, your inbox is full of “unfortunately” emails. And it starts to chip away at you. So before we talk about portfolios, cover letters, or clients — let me ask you something simple: How are you?
MoMA (The Museum of Modern Art) has named Christophe Cherix as its new director, set to take over in September 2025. While Cherix has been with the museum for over a decade as the head of drawings and prints, his appointment has sparked controversy, with some questioning whether his leadership will bring the change that critics and activists have long demanded.
Animals are common subjects in art for several reasons, but depictions of animals acting like humans often encapsulate those light, positive, and humorous charms. Anthropomorphism – where we attribute human traits, emotions, and intentions to non-human entities – is innate to human psychology. Anthropomorphism in art, in particular, is an ancient tradition going as far back as the Upper Paleolithic period, where a human figure is given the head of a lion in a statue. Here’s a look at different examples of anthropomorphized animals doing random human things to inspire your next digital piece.
As a digital artist creating illustrations on my iPad using Procreate, my number one recommendation when it comes to styluses is the Apple Pencil. Its precision, pressure sensitivity, and natural feel make it the best stylus for creating digital art. If you’re looking for a reliable and intuitive tool for digital art, look no further.
If you're a digital artist, you know that documenting your creative process is just as important as creating the work itself. Whether you're recording time-lapse videos for Instagram, snapping high-quality shots for your portfolio, or vlogging your journey for YouTube, the right camera can make all the difference. We’re breaking down three of the most popular cameras with digital artists in mind: Nikon Z 8, VJIANGER, and Zostuic 4K Digital Camera. Each of these serves a different purpose, so you can find out which one is the perfect fit for you.
Have you ever experienced something so extraordinary that it felt like the universe was reaching out to you? A moment of unexpected grace, an unexplainable turn of events, or a deep transformation that changed the course of your life? For centuries, people have tried to make sense of these moments through art, creating visual testaments to their miracles. One of the most enduring forms of this practice is the ex-voto painting — a tradition that spans cultures, faiths, and time itself.

Hudson Guild Gallery presents “Hello Chelsea!” / Techspressionism 2025, a group exhibition of digital artists curated by artist and Kingsborough College Professor, Tommy Mintz. This exhibition follows the success of Hello Brooklyn! / Techspressionism 2024, which was held at the Kingsborough Art Museum in Brooklyn last summer.
In a time when online arguments often feel more like combat than conversation, and truth seems secondary to virality, WHISPERS invites us to look deeper into what’s really happening beneath the surface. Created by Paris-based computational artist Calin Segal, this AI-driven installation stages emotionally charged, ideologically loaded debates between digital actors.
Four Techspressionist Artists, a new group exhibition featuring video works by Colin Goldberg, Renata Janiszewska, Karen LaFleur, and Jan Swinburne, is opening at 150 Media Stream in Chicago this month. On view from April 28 to July 20, 2025, this exhibition highlights four unique interpretations of the Techspressionist movement — an international, artist-led community that explores emotion and aesthetics through digital technology.
The whole concept revolves around this brilliant inversion: we build machines that are designed to never pause, to run endlessly, reliably, unfeelingly. But humans? We fall apart. And maybe, that’s our defining feature. The ability to break is part of what makes us who we are. And, as this show suggests, it’s also what makes us artists. When everything else is stripped away; when skill becomes automated, when the body breaks down, when the markets crash, what remains is the human will. The impulse to make meaning. To create. To dream something up and try again. To rebuild.
As we approach the second quarter of the 21st century, museums are no longer just places where art and culture are preserved and displayed — they are adapting, evolving, and actively shaping the way we experience art. In a world where high-resolution images of masterpieces are just a Google search away, museums have had to redefine their purpose. Today, they are embracing AI, VR, blockchain, and interactive digital tools to stay relevant and engage modern audiences.
Making Our Miracles is a collaborative project by lead artist Clayton Campbell and curator Cansu Peker, who will together conceptualize and present a series of contemporary digital ex-voto art works created by a cohort of international artists using AI-assisted art in a unique participatory project.

Yesterday, I had the chance to experience an exhibition that perfectly brings together art, history, and technology, and it was such a treat. It’s called Christo and Jeanne-Claude: The Gates and Unrealized Projects for New York City, and it’s currently running at The Shed. The show marks 20 years since The Gates transformed Central Park in 2005, filling it with 7,503 vibrant saffron gates. The exhibition brings that momentous project back to life, but with a twist — it includes an incredible augmented reality (AR) component, along with a mobile app to make the experience even more engaging.
Imagine entering a space where identities shift like rippling water, blurring the lines between self and other in a seamless blend of digital and physical realities. This is Becoming Other, the first North American solo exhibition by multimedia artist Yiou Wang, now on view at THE BLANC in New York. Through motion capture, animation, immersive installations, and mixed realities, Wang creates a deeply intricate and imaginative world.
Growing up as a girl at the age of internet has come with its own set of challenges — comparison, judgment, and an ever-present awareness of our bodies in ways that often felt unhealthy. Fast forward ten years, and we're in the era of AI, where those same anxieties have evolved, taking on new dimensions. The Second-Guess: Body Anxiety in the Age of AI, revisits these themes and sheds light on issues that remain stigmatized yet deeply relevant.

Subliexe is a digital artist whose work delves into abstraction, glitch, and memory in the age of image hypervelocity. His name (a fusion of “sublime” and “execution”) reflects both his conceptual focus and his hands-on approach to digital experimentation. Using tools like Processing, AI, GIMP, and data moshing software, Subliexe explores the chaotic speed at which images flood our lives today — and what that speed does to our sense of memory, time, and identity. We asked Subliexe about his art, creative process, and inspirations.
