Digital art, once called computer art or new media art, refers to art made using software, computers, or other electronic devices. Anything produced or made on digital media, such as animations, photographs, illustrations, videos, digital paintings, and such can be classified as digital art.

Digital art has countless applications and uses but is most commonly used in commercial settings. These include media advertisements and producing visual graphic effects and animations in films, video games, etc.

The ease of publishing, sharing, and selling digital art has made many new jobs and careers available for digital artists all around the world. Digital art can also be used to create graphic designs.
