Instructions & Tips
Digital art or Digital Art has become an important part of the art market, and has received a lot of attention especially with the rise of NFT Art(NFT Art).
Here I try to answer many questions about this topic and give you access to digital art and digital artwork.
What is digital art?
Digital art is a work of art that is created solely or primarily using digital technologies and stored digitally. Various media can be used, including photography, video and animation. The results are often displayed on a computer monitor, but can also be presented in other forms - for example, as a digital print or object or interactive installation.
This new form of creative expression is already highly valued in the cultural market, and there have been many sales of digital NFT art in recent years, which have also fetched astonishingly high prices.
What is an NFT?
An NFT is a special type of digital contract or token that is not interchangeable. This means that each NFT is unique and cannot be compared with other NFTs . Hence the term"Non Fungible Token", non-exchangeable object that is stored and controlled on a blockchain .
NFTsare therefore interesting for an artist because they allow them to sell their arts as unique and at the same time tamper-proof digital objects.
NFTshave been called the new "currency" of digital art, although it is actually just the contract to buy a piece of digital art. Payment is made with cryptocurrencies. As examples, you can see here:
-
Ethereum
-
Solana
-
Polygon
-
Avalanche

What is the significance of the digitization of art?
The digitization of art (digital art, computer art) has radically changed the way we consume art and how it can be produced. Thanks to the proliferation of digital technologies, artists can now share and sell their work more easily than ever before. At the same time, more and more people have access to digital art - whether online or via virtual and augmented realities.
The terms used here are:
-
Augmented reality art
-
Virtual Reality Art
-
Mixed reality art
These developments represent a great opportunity for both established artists and emerging talent to present their work to a wider audience and market it in innovative ways.
Furthermore, they open up completely new possibilities for the design of artworks: By combining different digital media, artists can now create completely new types of art experiences - this is also referred to as mixed media.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of digital art?
As with any technical development, there are pros and cons.
Some artists see digitization as a threat to the authenticity of their artwork, as more and more people have access to the tools necessary to produce digital art. Others fear that the spread of digital art could cause "real" art (example: real painting) to lose importance.
Nevertheless, the new technologies in the background open up completely new possibilities for artists to create and market their art. By distributing digital art, you can reach a significantly larger circle of people who might not otherwise be interested in "real" art.
In summary, then, it can be said that the digitization of art brings with it both opportunities and challenges. How exactly these are to be evaluated, however, is ultimately a matter of personal opinion.
How to sell Digital Art?
There are several ways in which digital art can be sold.
An artist or artists can continue to sell images, but also the digital images, in an exhibition and gallery. These exhibitions use video equipment or perhaps digital frames instead of physical images.
Digital art, computer art, video art or animations are then shown on these devices.
Furthermore, the artist can sell the digital art on the Internet, through one of the many different marketplaces that have emerged in recent years.
These marketplaces function as a sales platform for various digital artworks. Anyone interested can buy digital art here via their browser on their PC or cell phone. This creates a completely new market for culture and cultural creators.
What are the most popular NFT marketplaces in the world?
The following NFT marketplaces are currently the most popular:
-
Opensea
-
Superare
-
Rarible
-
Axie Infinity
-
Nifty Gateway
-
Solanart
-
Binance
The differences between the NFT marketplaces lie in the cryptocurrencies that can be used to pay, but also the respective thematic focuses. Here, you have to inform yourself very precisely.
In terms of features, most of the offerings are very much the same and so it's also more about what artwork, digital artwork, is there in the exhibition.
You always have to pay attention to the fees that are incurred when paying with cryptocurrencies.
What media can I use for digital art?
With digital art, you can use different media.
Computer-generated art is constantly evolving and following many trends, currently particularly strong in the direction of mixed reality. This is the combination of real and virtual elements. Some artists also use 3D models to create their artworks.
Others, on the other hand, focus on photo or video art. This is also referred to as media art. Another new possibility is computer-generated art, which is also referred to as artificial intelligence (AI).
So there are many different ways to shape the world of digital and media art.
But the most important thing is and remains the creativity of the artist. Because only in this way can completely new and unique works of art arise.
Can you learn digital art?
There are several ways in which you can learn digital art . For one, you can learn on your own and watch or read various tutorials on the Internet.
Another option is to take part in a workshop or course. Here, participants learn the basics of digital art and also get tips and tricks from more experienced artists.
Another option is to study at an art college, academy of fine arts, or university, where various courses on digital art are offered.
What is the future of digital art?
The future of digital art is very promising. This is because digitization is making more and more people aware of art and interested in it. The new technologies, such as mixed reality, 3D models or video art, are also opening up ever new possibilities for artists.
Thus, in the future can always be novel and unique, creative works.
Trade in digital art will also continue to increase in the future. Because through the various NFT marketplaces on the Internet, it is becoming easier and easier to sell the works.
Other topics are new business models for creative art, as it is possible to sell the works in galleries, but also lend them or sell them only partially.
