Re: Say a couple of your favourite cherished mediums.

If I could only use one media for the rest of my days, it would have to be charcoal !
I cherish oil paint and pastels as well

So long as it was only your own tail you gave up chasing

(do elusive butterflies have tails...?)

FWIW,
the brain scan and sleep studies said my 'dizziness' was caused by small seizures

Re: Say a couple of your favourite cherished mediums.

I love the taste of oil paint... Maybe what's in the cap tastes different from what's in the tube... Hmm, I'll have to experiment.

Re: Say a couple of your favourite cherished mediums.

Ink watercolours and oils - depending on how the mood takes me - ink and watercolours most often as they are quicker to use.
