For some reason I've now moved on from charcoal (after one sketch) and am now looking at the colour mixing of paint. And the cheap Kmart sets don't have the primaries I would need to mix lots of colours from. There is a set that does but it's a bit more expensive and I don't want to overcommit to something I don't have the energy or the guts to do. (It's intimidating. It's a lot.)

This is annoying. It's not so bad as the charcoals were cheap and gifted, but I seem to just cycle through hyperfixations and never actually have the energy to do the hobbies.

I used to have this problem with hyper fixation as well and it fucking sucks. I hope you find something that works for you 🙂

Thanks. I guess I'll work out what I truly need and try to just get the cheap bare minimum to see if I stay interested
