Of the two, I prefer oils, but use acrylics most often because I find it easier not to have to use turpentine, linseed oil, and other such accessories. I've always wanted to use paint in watercolors, but just didn't seem to be able to work with it very well. I'm trying, but it's still hard!bunnitshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07762412508859521913noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7048598851128171034.post-67043963801180013652012-07-18T10:08:41.050-07:002012-07-18T10:08:41.050-07:00I prefer your version,but if you find water colour...I prefer your version,but if you find water colour difficult try oils or acrylics that's what I use as I find water colours difficult tooLittle Miss Titchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08456038281813066947noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7048598851128171034.post-49273641124699557972012-07-18T07:39:51.367-07:002012-07-18T07:39:51.367-07:00Gee!

I still find watercolor painting difficult to do, but as I have worked with it more, I have discovered interesting things about it that make me want to continue to explore this medium. I have to give my teacher, Mrs. Mary Thomas Vangegrift, a talented artist and amazing woman of 88 years of age, for her encouragement and inspiration.bunnitshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07762412508859521913noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7048598851128171034.post-63462078586861362142012-07-17T23:59:53.762-07:002012-07-17T23:59:53.762-07:00I prefer your version too, the colours are much li...I prefer your version too, the colours are much lighter and airier...
