Well something I came across not too long ago was digital painting, which is classified as traditional painting techniques such as watercolor, oils, impasto, etc. which are applied using digital tools by means of a computer, a digitizing tablet and stylus, and software.

Really well done. I always enjoying seeing your work. Have you tried Deviant Art for displaying your work. This particular type of art is very popular on that site.
Thank You! I do have a DA account, since Middle School to be honest, but I don't use it much.
You are so talented! Amazing!!!
First and foremost you are an Artist. It is clearly in your blood. I love your work. It is always beautiful. I can't wait to see what you do when you have a little more "practice" with the digital format.
