What art medium do you like to use?
Three weeks for Dreamwidth: What art medium do you like to use?
I work with fineliners, traditional pen and ink, acrylic paint, digital line art and coloring, and more recently, charcoal and pencils. As far as my favorite medium is concerned, I think it has always been fineliners/pen and ink or the digital equivalent. Though in traditional art, I nowadays mostly use fineliners in favor of pen and ink, the kind of drawing I make is more or less the same style as I’ve been making for years: line art - raw black and white or digitally colored. I love its classicness and timelessness. It’s very common in sketching and old book illustrations, and still alive in genres like old-school fantasy art.
Painting with acrylics is something I have been doing regularly for a few years now, and while still exploring the medium, I am looking forward to experimenting with oil paint. I’ve purchased paints and materials for that, and I’m curious to get to know the medium.
