Paint! — 9 months ago
I got some proper purple to get around the mixing problems I have had. Turns out that one should spend a little more and get better quality acrylics rather than going on the cheap! Word to the wise.

One painting this week so far. Another half constructed. One of these days I will get the colors to work as I expect.
I made my first acrylic painting today. It sucks. But I like the medium, actually. I had originally gotten put off of working with paint because of bad watercolor experiences, but acrylic is nice. I like the fast drying aspect. I need to work with the gloss to cut the paint and make it more luminous as well as to improve the mixing, but it is a nice medium.
All the water and washing drys my hands out, though. :-)
