    Abstract vs. Realism – Which Is the Best Art Style and Why? — May Cockcroft

    I feel the same as snoball. I don't think there's necessarily a "best" art style. It's up to personal preference and what style happens to speak to you or grab your interest. Of the two, my personal preference is realism. I gravitate towards realistic styles when I go to art galleries, and I...

    Is Polychromos what I need?

    I use Polychromos. I have the full set and love them. Nice color selection, and the colors are rich. They feel smooth to use despite being considered a harder core, and I find them easy to blend. I've also never had one break when being sharpened (which was a huuuge problem with a prior brand...

    Hoodoo field

    Ooh! I like this! Loving the colors and textures. The rough surface goes really nicely with the subject matter. I want to try something like this now. :LOL: I think the last time I did an image transfer was around 15 years ago? For that, I just pasted the image face down on a board (forget what...

    What are you up to?

    Nice pictures! I was also mostly absent lately due to a trip. Me and hubby went to Vegas for a few days. We've never been there, and there was a Nascar race there that he wanted to see, so we decided to make a bigger trip around it. Kind of thought of it like a mini honeymoon (though we want to...

    Which 5 art related things did you do last week?

    This is going to be a stretch because I haven't touched my art in a while. 1. Organized my "studio corner". Since I moved, I no longer have a room devoted to art. I just have a corner in the living room now. Anyways, it was kind of a mess from whenever my last painting session was. So I...

    Exploring watercolour

    I'm by no means an expert at watercolor. In fact, I admit it's one of my weaker mediums. But I'll share some tips I can give just from what I learned in my watercolor journey. 1. Decent supplies. You don't need the best out there, but I found trying to start with cheaper watercolors was really...

    Art for what's sake?

    I personally don't feel like harming living things is "art" or can ever be called art. And I agree with txomsy. It's one thing to make a statement about animals suffering. But to make more animals suffer to make that statement is not the right way to go in my opinion. And this isn't the first...

    Cheetah in Watercolor

    Lovely! I like the colors and the softness of the spots. I love cheetahs. They're such beautiful, graceful animals. I had the opportunity just recently to see two in-person. I'd only seen one once before, but I was a little kid at the time so barely remember it outside of a photograph my mum...

    What are you up to?

    Aw... your kitty looks just like Kaido. :) We purchased a tracker for him. It arrived on Saturday so we got it all set up for him. We want to get one for Kishka too, but we're still working on her handling. Interestingly enough, she seems to have become more receptive to things since Kaido...

    Creativity Has No Boundaries – Agree or Disagree? | May Cockcroft

    I think it's true that it has no rules or limitations. Or at least that SHOULD be the case. I think some people create the implication that there's rules and limits though, and unfortunately some artists get trapped in that, in seeking recognition.

    I agree with the boat idea. I like how you can see this one multiple ways. On one hand, it looks like flowers in a bowl, on a desk perhaps. But on the other, it looks like flowers in a boat drifting in the water with some foliage in the background. I love the colors too. Very nice!

    What are you up to?

    I love kitty purrs. Best sound in the world. 🥰 And I agree. I can't stand a house without cats. Many years ago when I went to University, I lived in a townhouse for a while. My cats stayed back home with my parents and my house felt so lonely without them. So quiet. Even right now. Both are...

    He seems happy to be home. He's been very cuddly since returning. :)
