It's funny, because my exSO, and a lot of his fellow artists, fell on brushes and whatnot with cries of delight, because they were doing commercial art, and anything that got the same effect in less time was something to celebrate.
Can they make the effect without them? Sure. Do they want to take all that time to do it on a piece of art that they're doing for a client, who absolutely will not know the difference?
Hell no.

I think everyone just needs to do their art in the way that makes them happy, and if that means no brushes, well - all good! I don't judge, and I don't know why anyone else would, really; art is so subjective, anyway.

A lot of professional / commmercial artists use them a LOT. It's not wrong (as long as it's properly credited of course). The end result is often cleaner and prettier anyway because it's as you say, it saves a lot of time. Again, honestly I think it's more related to me being an old lady going "ohh let me get my quill pen and ink because this typewriter doesn't give the same feel".

Heeeee!

I've seen some really great brushes for stuff like doing Black hair textures and I can absolutely see why artists would want to use things like that. Sure, you can do it by hand, but why would you want to when you consider how much time it would take just to do that part of the picture?

[tabaqui]

Exactly. And especially if it's kind of soulless commercial art that you're doing because hey - bills to pay! Nobody wants to spend hours/days/weeks on that stuff. Stuff like PS gave artists shortcuts to get the donkey work out of the way so they could, most of the time, concentrate on the art they actually *enjoyed* and felt a passion for.
