      This is not accurate. There are both traditional and digital artists on the platform, as well as those of us who do both. It also isn't just portrait artists. There are visual development and concept artists, environment designers, background artists, prop designers, storyboard artists, illustrators, 3D artists, photographers and other visual creatives on the platform. And, I'm sure it will continue to expand as it continues to grow.
