It's kind of like why waste paper for newspapers when you can watch the news on tv. It's not convenient for some people. Paper or plastic bags? Plastic is hard on the environment and paper bags are from trees.

Drawing digitally is not convenient for some people. Like if you don't want to draw in front of a computer for long periods of time.

I draw both digitally and traditionally. At least you're not wasting the paper you draw on. I'm not sure if I answered your question, Graham, but those are just my thoughts.

How about the paper used in working places (every worker use paper and some more than other)?
How about the paper used in schools?
How about bath tissus or paper tower?
News paper? Books?

I don't think drawing artists are the biggest source of paper losts!! Also there are ways to minimise you're use of paper liske use both side of paper (when you're not drawing something official) or use recycled paper... We should cut on many other things before to cut on the drawing paper ...

My opinion
