Julianne Lalonde Try to find out the periods of the day during which you are more creative. For me (as for many artists) it's from 10-11 am and 11:30pm-1:30am

Pens, Pens, Pens...Have a Favorite?

MakinMoney129 @MakinMoney129 (231) • United States 7 Dec 07

I know this is a silly question, but do any of you have a favorite type of pen you like to use? I love the Pentel RSVP pens, mostly because the inks are in fun colors, but they write really nicely too...do you guys have favorites,...

Julianne Lalonde So far, I liked the roller ball pens with black gel ink (the ones that are very fluid). It tends to smear a lot, but I like it. I love to use my art pens like the faber castel pitt artist ones as well - all of them and calligraphy pens (not markers)

Watercolor Pencils

highlyclever @highlyclever (1111) • United States 18 Jul 08

I bought some watercolor pencils the other day at the store, and when I brought them home, my wife asked me: "Do you know how to use them?" And, I realized that I did not. Apparently, watercolor pencils are not like regular...

Julianne Lalonde You can use them dry, as normal pencils. Good watercolor pencils like the prismas will have a good pigmentation even dry. You can use them wet by using them on wet areas of paper -that will intensify the colors and cause some color bleeding that you can...

pencils??? old fashioned sharpeners?

macdingolinger @macdingolinger (10386) • United States 15 Jan 10

Favorite brand/type of mechanical pencil?

maezee @maezee (41988) • United States 26 Jul 09

This is probably a weird question. But I'm ALWAYS looking for mechanical pencils (usually .7 mm lead) that WORK well and write smoothly (without squeaking or being cheap), and I have SUCH a hard time finding them! Which ones...

Julianne Lalonde I just bought a faber castell one. I got the 0.5, but they had multiple sizes. It's plastic (unfortunately) but seems sturdy. it's automatic and came with B grade leads. less than 5 canadian dollars. I like it a lot so far. Otherwise you could try the pilot S...

This kind of art is a little creepy

youless @youless (112561) • Guangzhou, China 21 Jul 17

It is creepy for me to look at this kind of art: I wonder whether some people will feel scared when they see it in real. Will they run away and call the police? Anyway, it is a very different art.

I Drew A Thing

PLETHOS @Plethos (13581) • United States 24 Aug 17

One day while I was at starbucks sipping on a green tea and listening to youtube videos on my headphones, I started to just scribble meaningless lines and shapes onto a napkin. The weird thing is that I didn't intend to purposely...
