@unicorn: definitely not THAT waxy, just think of like colored pencils being cousins with oil pastels. A lil waxy, but not a ton. Though waxier than most other pencils for sure. :O
@Lady Luna: that is cool sorry for my late reply.
@Addy: oh okay and thank you -giggles-

If you can’t say something nice, Don’t say anything at all!
I'm not an acrylic painter by ANY means, but the paints I used for this were so shitty. DX
I want to get better paints and see if I can recreate this. See if it turns out better.
And of course, click it to go to the IG post =)
@Addy: it did turn out better than I had expected it to, admittedly. But that was kinda torture to do with those horrible paints.
@lady luna: i'm of the opinion that all paints are horrible so i have so much respect ;w;
@Addy: Lol. Fair enough.
I used to absolutely despide the idea of painting myself.
then I opted to give watercolour a try.
Also, here are a couple new ones I did today.
As usual, click the images to be taken to the IG post.
@lady luna: yooo those are also incredible, omg
I don't have any evidence of my last attempts at painting lmao :') it was not good

@Addy: Thanks darlin'~
I'm thinkin' I might open an etsy shop once I have more things done.
I dunno if people would sell any, buuuut, oh well? No reason not to try, I think
And awwww. I wish I could see your attempts.
@lady luna: they were pretty sad haha
And with Etsy there's not much to lose! It's like 20 cents per listing and they only take a small fee after you sell. :o Overall it's quite great! I just packed up an Etsy order, actually~

@Addy: I might after a bit.
I dunno if anyone will buy though, lol. That's the issue, really.
Plus I only have 3 things so far. I gotta get some more... better... acrylics to try more. Lol. I have another piece of canvas, but should grab more of that too....
Hmmmmm
@lady luna: i wish you luck! :3
i really did enjoy watercolor though, but I never got very good at it. Tempted to try gouache one of these days but ... hm

@Addy: I've never tried gouache myself, that strikes me as a 'ritzier' paint, lol.
But I am actually really enjoying the watercolours.
Even if waiting between all applications of colours for the damned thing to dry suuuucks XD
@lady luna: it's kinda like acrylic but a little easier to work with in some cases? more opaque and not so blendy from what i can tell, so it would lend itself well to the kinda stuff i do
idk about it being ritzier since i've seen some cheap af sets floating around haha

@Addy: Lol. It's due to lack of exposure for me. It gives that impression for me. XD
I get that it really isn't though
@lady luna: i totally get that haha, also the super fancy lookin' name
Oils imo are probably the ritziest, or at least can be. Even some of the cheaper sets are like $20 a TUBE ;__;

@Addy: That is true. Oils are insanely expensive overall, compared to the others.
But at least I can get watercolours. Lol
@Addy: Oh definitely.
Watercolours are gorgues, if done right.
Also, did you see the finished sunflowers? =D
