top 5 art mediums?
Ooh good one, thanks for the ask friend! I’ll opt to answer regarding my favorites to work in, which are not necessarily my favorites to see others work in (for example, I love oils and watercolors but I can’t paint for shit in either lol).
1. Digital - my go-to bc it’s so low stress. What would I do without the “undo” button? Pretty sure I would die aksjsk. Also animation is cool! And I sure as hell don’t have the patience for traditional animation
2. Stone - usually I work in soap stone bc it’s easiest but I would LOVE to work in marble or something someday. One of my favorite things is when there’s something living inside the stone which crawls its way out and I just act as the guide to help it along its journey to freedom.
3. Ink - any type of ink! Pen, India, they’re all good! But definitely the opposite of “low stress,” every time I work in ink I near about shit myself with anxiety lol
4. Sculpey - now ft. silicon casts and wax to make custom candles! But whether it’s jewelry or base sculptures for candles, sculpey is an excellent medium with its easy-bake formula that retains flexibility to diminish shattering upon impact
5. Wood - both carving and burning, but mainly carving. Bas relief wood carving my beloved <3
Honorable mention goes to acrylic paint, we love a fast drying queen !!! (Oil is superior in pretty much every way, but I canNOT retain focus long enough to wait for that shit to dry between layers.) I also love photography, particularly film photography! Only thing I ever won a National award for was film photography and I feel homesick for the darkroom sometimes ;-;
#also poetry and music! but I was trying to stick to visual mediums#It’s been too long since I last did any serious work in stone - I need to re-up my diamond dremel bits but those shits are expensive..#also this reminds me I have to finish my wood burning aksjsk whoops#anabodement
