''As an E Painter I am essentially incorporating my previous painting skills as an oil painter with my technical knowledge acquired from Digital Photography. I create my E Paintings organically from my mind while using my stylus as my brush and my touch screen laptop as if it were my Canvas. As an artist I believe in advancing with the current times and using this technology to my advantage. I do not believe however in being used by the technology. Having a hands on approach every step of the creative process is essential to myself as an artist. I see technology and this new artistic medium as a new exciting creative opportunity . There is a freeing feeling while exploring this new artistic avenue." - Nicole Martinelli
