Watercolour.

The way the pigment blends, and finds its own way.

Predictably unpredictable.

Dreamlike paintings, flowing, and seductive.

I'm smitten, and I'm terrible at it! Haha

Digital drawing using Paint Tool Sai 1! I sometimes feel like the odd one out because everyone else seems to either use Clip Studio Paint or Procreate haha, but I love Paint Tool Sai so much it's my beloved. It was made by just one guy too! 😃

Music. Listening; creating.. Doesn't matter. It soothes the soul.

I do appreciate television to be able to make people feel or convey a concept to those who otherwise might not get it. The Handmaid's Tale changed a lot of lifelong Republicans to Democrats, for example.

demos, as in some geek created music and 2d art and 3d art and programmed in a series of interesting routines in a thematic style, with no attempt at monetization. a global scene has been ongoing since computers ran at < 1 mhz. lan parties on the scale of thousands have competitions.

Thats a tough one because it really depends on what message or concept the art is conveying but most generally for 2D art I love thick acrylic paint on canvas and I'm particularly partial to the impasto technique. For 3D art its clay for sure, I love how versatile it is.

I really like sculptures. I generally don't care for staring at paintings, but if it's 3D then I'm in. Really liked a Matisse exhibit I saw a while back
