Morphology

artware = art + ware (transparent) = art + ware

Modeled on the '-ware' pattern (as in 'software'), it transparently denotes software/goods related to art for learners familiar with that pattern.

Etymology

Artware combines art and ware, and ware is the same idea in software or hardware, where software is 'programs' and hardware is 'physical parts'. So artware is 'software' made to create, show, or let people interact with digital art.
