Old-Style Painting is So Retro

Having discovered the benefits of digital painting, I'm ready to retire from the traditional methods entirely. Why spend hours painstakingly mixing colours, cleaning brushes, painting layer upon layer when I can so rapidly achieve similar result by sitting at a keyboard? Here are the benefits of using Photoshop or the GIMP:

1. It's speedier
2. It's cheaper
3. It's easier to reproduce
4. Complicated effects can be done with ease
5. It's more precise. Physical painting is so messy. It's tough putting the paint where you want it. The consistency may be too runny or to solid, the brush may not be cooperative. Cats may run across the painting leaving footprints. This is much rarer in digital painting although it does still occur.
