I have been lucky enough that the majority of my work has been accepted positively. And I am asked often what software I use to create my digital artwork. I currently employ a number of programs to produce the layers that are then combined to create one of my finished pieces.
Which program I use at the time depends on what effect / look I am going for. Some of my work uses many layers at a time. So I might use 5 or 6 different programs to make a new piece of art.
Here is a list of the software I use the most to create my art….
