One of my hobbies is art. Before new media, all of my art was traditional - paper and pencil, etc. However, with new media, there's a variety of "new" ways that art can be drawn.
With a tablet, I can "draw" digitally, just as I would on paper with a pencil. It's incredibly intuitive, and there are many art-editing programs that I can utilize. There are essentially none of the limitations of traditional art. Mistakes can be undone instantly, and we have limitless types of brushes and styles we can utilize. We have so many options to take advantage of.
After I draw something, I typically upload it to deviantart.com, which is a site dedicated to sharing any kind of art creations, whether they're poems, or art etc, and to Facebook, in an album, more for myself to keep track of what I've done (like a portfolio), and for my friends to see and comment on, if they're interested.

Hey Kin, your art work looks great! I agree with you on the point that new media technologies can take away the "mistakes" that we make. When I was developing photos in a traditional setting, the dark room, I would make many mistakes and have to start over again. Now I can processes my photos on the computer and undo mistakes quickly thanks to advances in technology.
