Nice wedgie!Interesting medium, too. I'm purely a pencil person these days. I used to paint acrylics, but don't get the time to set up, paint and pack away with the kids being older these days. Never painted water colour - can't stand working with the stuff.

Not a fan of watercolours myself, I'm too much of a control freak I agree with your view of it too. Painting definitely is a thing to do when you have the space and inclination, but yeah, setting up the easel and getting enough space on a table somewhere is something I never seem to have time to do, whereas with pencils, all you need is a chair and something to put your paper on really. Much more likely you'll draw if it's a simpler deal. To be honest, since I got my graphics tablet, I've been pretty obsessed with learning how to do that but it's nowhere near the same medium which frustrates me a bit, but I'm still enjoying the ability to draw/sketch and erase mistakes instantly. Ctrl+Z is a wonderful thing. :D

It's strangely instinctive to make a mstake in pencilsand look for the backspace key...
