I like a whole lot of mediums, but my absolute favorite is the humble drawing. If pressed, I’d say pen on paper is my preferred category.
I love how one can take the simplest of materials and create a window into an abstracted reality. It’s a raw medium, where it’s hard to undo what is already there, so one has to either incorporate errors into the final piece or avoid them entirely.
So what is your favorite medium for visual art? Have you attempted it yourself?
i found it to be the least forgiving, no erasing and your touch needs to be super light and also deliberate, but maybe i didnt do it right, i was trying to replicate James Cameron’s style from Titanic
Use an eraser to add highlights and don’t be scared to get stuck in, redo, refine. Also try using something like a brown paper rather than white. I go in with the idea of creating a dark image/object, with highlights, rather than a white sheet with perfect lines. In general i find a block of white a hindrance. Its too clean and makes me reluctant to get started or make marks.
