Who needs Da Vinci?

Today a lot of people say that digital media is getting rid of classical styles of art, such as painting. I would argue that, not only is it not getting rid of it, it is inspiring it. For example we have The Mona Lisa a famous world renowned painting, and in the following video we see a digital painter aspiring to remake the masterpiece.

Yet digital painting is doing so much more than what just painting did, it inspires new ideas, new process and new styles as showcased by this video.

So who said that digital media is bad?? Closed minded fools who can't accept that something new can be just as awe-striking as something that has been done for thousands of years.
