Whatβs your favorite art medium? π€π
Hi everyone!
One of my favorite hobbies is creating art, and my favorite medium is watercolors. I like how watercolors mix and work together on paper to create a beautiful art piece. I want to know if you all have a favorite art medium too.

Hey @Destiny4157, good to see you again. And that's a great ice breaker, I love water colours too, it's really fascinating to see them mix and create beautiful art. π
I enjoy coloring too, so I like oil pastels haha! And oil paints as well, the finish ooof! Too good.
Hi @Sunisshiningandsoareyou,
Itβs good to see you again as well! Also thanks! I enjoy oil pastels as well. They blend so well and have a fantastic finish. Iβve never used oil paints before, but I have become interested in them from watching other people use them. Maybe I should experiment with it. π€π Thanks for responding!
Digital!
@Alaya22,
I think digital is incredible! I tried it a while ago, but I never got into it. Now Iβm interested in trying it again. Thanks for commenting! π
@Destiny4157
You should definitely try it out! It takes some time to get used to it but I've found it to be very convenient as in if you make some mistakes you can just go back and change things which isn't possible with traditional art. You can also try out different colour schemes and decide which works the best as most things in digital are not permanent!
I personally love using digital collaborative platforms to draw, and the endless amount of journals I have really speaks to how much I use traditional pencil and paper too π
I canβt really decide a favorite, but those are my 2 best ones
What is art medium? If that's about the tools used, my favourite one would definitely be the sketching app, digital art seems like the easiest and most relaxing to me
@limeOcean5805 Youβre right! They are tools used to create art. Sketching apps are cool and fun. I'm thinking about getting back into it. π€π Thanks for commenting!
@Destiny4157 i love art too!! my favourite is ballpoint pens because A)super cheap and durable B) i love the line quality it gives and C)you can just pull it out everywhere and start drawing
@Destiny4157
I love watercolors too!
I am no artist but I enjoy painting.
Watercolors have a life of their own, you never total control them, particularly over wet paper.
They are transparent so many layers can be seen, to beautiful effects.
They get well with ink, both physically and aesthetically.
This is my last watercolor (with a bit of ink and of gouache), of an old small fishing boat in Uruguay:
@HealingTalk, this is beautiful work! You're right about watercolors having a life if their own. I think that's what makes them a fun art medium. Thanks for commenting! Feel free to check out my other forum posts.

Thank you Destiny, for your kind words!
It's wonderful to share our art sensibilities with like-minded souls, like you.
I will check your other posts.
Thank you for this great, interesting and motivating thread!

Hi - I like your picture. The awesome blue colour of the sea, the red boat. I'm also a Christian so I see the cross of the timber that reminds me of the savior Jesus Christ who hang on the cross for our sins to make a wonderful way for us to God.
A masterpiece β¨οΈ π¨ πΌ

I'm a big fan of impressionist art.
ie Van Gogh, Monet, etc.
@LovingPeacefulHeart impressionist art is cool! I like that we can interpret different meanings in the art. Thanks for commenting π! Feel free to check out my other forum posts! π
@LovingPeacefulHeart
Me too.
@Destiny4157
my favorite medium of art and artistic expression is Anime, particularly Anime that is created in Japan or expressing Japanese culture and folklore...
@NewYorker11 I love this kind of art! I want to get into but don't know where to start. Maybe I should look on Youtube. Thanks for commenting! Feel free to check out my other forum posts.π
I like doing digital art, but I'm horrible at it. I don't draw much, but I like oil pastels, too.
