In what way has your art/writing changed over the years?
Three weeks for Dreamwidth: In what way has your art/writing changed over the years?
I’m going to answer that for my art.
I mainly made fantasy gouache paintings and pencil/pen drawings from imagination in my youth. Years later, when I was in college, I dropped the fantasy theme and switched from gouache to acrylic, but pen drawings were still part of what I did. I also experimented with watercolor and ZIG Art & Graphic Twin brush pens. Later, I kept the pen (sometimes fineliner) drawings, combined with their digital equivalents, and continued exploring acrylics. Most recently, I’ve been trying to become familiar with oil painting and rekindled my love for pencil drawings.
Over the years, my love of pen/fine-liner drawings has remained, and I’m looking to experiment to make better paintings. Fan art came and went in my journey, from being very present in my youth to almost absent and, most recently, once again taking a vital place in my art journey.
