I found a new fav art supply! (*≧ω≦*)🖌️💖
🕑 Added 2024-09-13 22:34:39 +0000 UTCthe aforementioned neocolors I ordered arrived a couple days ago and I excitedly sat down to play around with and test them out! I soon fell in love with the versatility of the medium and swiftly made several paintings. using neocolors feels like a marriage of all my favorite aspects of traditional mediums (texture of oil pastels, rewetting of gouache, blendability of alcohol markers, ease of color mixing) and they felt entirely intuitive to use. I made sure to get colors I know I love using to better ease the transition into a new medium, which worked out well. it's always exciting finding a medium that you click with, because it can take a lot of trial and error. I love how certain traditional mediums look, but using them feels cumbersome and at odds with my process (cough watercolors). on the flip side, you can easily tell when you like an art supply that feels compatible with your process and artistic habits. I fought against those inclinations for a long time, but I'm learning that leaning into them can really bring out the feeling and personal voice of your art.
so yeah, I'm having a lot of fun using these new supplies and especially love how they've helped me embrace mess and unpredictability in art. I'm excited to keep testing them out and making more paintings. ^^ here's to trying a new or unfamiliar art supply this weekend if you're looking to change things up!
cheers n have a good weekend~
