People have been painting on a canvas for years, reaching over with brushes in hand. Why they would not be able to paint on an electronic canvas with their fingers?
If you think about people sitting at a desk, reaching over to a screen that sits too high to confortably you your hands and fingers on, then you are absolutly correct. But ... if you stand instead is a lot more confortable to interact wit hte canvas. Also you can place your canvas flat on the desk or at an angle like a drafting board and again you are talking about a natural interface similar to what people been doing for years.
Placement makes a big difference when you use a human interface that uses your hands and fingers to directly interact with the objects in your canvas.
