I agree with Suz with an additional comment. The "wow" factor of seeing a
picture using real bricks is different (not saying better, not saying worse
- just "different") than the "wow" factor of seeing a DAT/CAD rendition.
Both are works of art in their own right, but they are different mediums,
hence DAT/CAD should be in a different category - similar to oil vs.
watercolor at an artfair.
