Computers and the Arts

paris-hilton.jpgFine Arts and computers do exactly what Paris Hilton is doing on your far left; They clash!  I completely understand how online learning will become much more common, but how does that apply to a Visual Art class?  As I am in the Arts Education Program and am majoring in Visual Art I have to consider how computers will personally affect my career.  Of course there are forms of art on computers, such as a graphic design, but where does painting a picture fall into this computer madness?  Computers can be used as a resource to view art works from around the world, but I do not believe it can help a person draw. Visual art is accomplished visually and kinetically.  As for other art areas such as drama and dance computers are of no help.

When I applied to the University of Regina’s Education Program I did so in hopes of teaching the way I have been taught in the past.  Education Computers opened my eyes, allowing me to see that my vision may not be a reality.  I have mixed feelings towards this idea.  Being a Network distributor just doesn’t seem as fun.  Can I get some comfort?
