I'm in my form most when I use pencils and graphite.
I sometimes use charcoal, not to often to think I'm good. I love sketching with pens though. I save my finished drawing safely so they aren't smudged or faded. Pens don't fade too much and they are a bit forgiving.

I absolutely hate my painting outcomes. I can't layer correctly or do the 3rd and I usually get bad outcomes....no always. I'm sort of precious with watercolours, it looks kinda cute but don't take it seriously.

I like working with pad and utensil so I don't have any sort of art program. Photography sometimes sparks my interests....I'm not very good with scenery or full portraits but I do think I'm pretty good......... with dog portraits. I have no idea why.

What are you main tools of trade, digital, cravings, clay, camera, origami? Anything is possible. What do you ultimately suck at? Like me with painting.

I am a proud Wondergirls fan.
You keep playing me like a Haruhimachine.


Pencil, paper, and colored pencils ftw.

I really hate soft pastels (I got a set from my grandma that she bought years ago) and everything comes out fuzzy.
I am, however, forcing myself to get used to 'em.
 
     
that's what she said
 
I use just about everything, being a mixed media artist (also coming from a household of ceramicists and mixed media artist parents). As of late it's been my pen and notebook, acrylics and photography. I'm graduating from the UCLA school of Arts and I'm hoping to get a Canon 50D SLR for graduation. (!!!)
     
do the dip
love charcoal also lol
I use pencil and currently trying for makers...but they're kinda hard to control....
watercolor is also a good thing 3nodding
 
     
Welcome to my web
http://etale.us/weblogo.gif
 
I like to sketch with pencils and painting with watercolors [although I'm not that good at it]. I also like to use colored pencils.

I don't like using pastels though. sad
     
Well, I absolutely hate painting. sad

And I'm not very good with tablets, either. Mainly, I like working with pens.:3
 
     
 
      I'm a digital artist mostly. I draw sketches on a paper, but always complete them in graphic editor.
     
right now, im all about pencils... Drawing pencils... not mech pencils... (kinda like the stuff on the left most of my sig.) i make money real fast with it as well. XD
 
     
 
felt tip drawing pens.
and magic colours. heart
i dont shade my art, thts why. XD
     
            •••I like charcoal, pastels, oils... anything that lets you do wiiiiiide, long strokes. And Photoshop, obviously.
            Mechanical pencils are the devil's device, the only way for me to use 'em is to burn them and scatter the ashes.
