Audiobookbay finally relented and I am now in possession of 'the outsider' audiobook, not the Albert Camus one but the Stephen King one and shall now proceed to listen while I draw.
did I mention the new acrylic painting I have begun?
Ah, acrylics.
They're such a fun medium. Somewhere between watercolours and oil paints and I'm only doing a sort of test drawing with it just to see the colours and how they fan out and the relationship they establish with canvas and water and with each other to get the first-hand experience as to how I should go about dealing with them in the future and so far they are bright, vivacious, shiny and not too fussy.
You can layer and layer and layer and they're not finicky like watercolours and forgiving to almost every fault.
Of course, they're not the kinds to blend like watercolours nor do they but the effect they provide is also absolutely different and I think I'm going to enjoy them as much as watercolours.
