Arts Culture Keynote Speakers

Artists are more diverse than ever before. The advent of computers and the internet has made it easier than ever to be an artist. In the past, we thought of artists as simply working with paint or a pencil. Today’s artists are often using graphic design or computers in order to create their works of art. Sometimes they are using computer programs like Photoshop in order to recreate art or to edit existing photos. Traditional artists and new age artists have even worked together on collaborations for new projects.
