Acrylics or oils; which do you like to paint with?

stephonics @stephonics (13) • United States 13 Feb 08

Do you have a preference? Do you paint with both? Tell me what you like and dislike about each.

beinola When I painted, I loved using oil and making glazes. It added such depth and subtle color. I would use acrylic for bigger pieces, but you can still get glazing effects if you have the right medium for mixing the paint.

beinola I so agree with you. I just want to tell them to get off the phone and drive. Some people just aren't coordinated enough to handle the car and a phone. I am one of those people. I have to pull over and if I can't I just don't pick up. Cell phone people are in...

How has your taste in music evolved?

santau @santau (223) • United States 10 Feb 08

how has your taste in music evolved throughout your life? I am just wondering. Growing up I loved country because that is what everyone around me listened to. Then someone introduced me to MTV and I became a huge Hanson fan lol....

beinola I really like your question. Music is so much part of my well being. In my teen days (and this will reveal my age), I loved the Ramones, Patty Smith, Led Zepplin, Elvis Costello, UB40, Nick Cave, Bob Marley (still do). Even though I still love to hear those...

beinola I am so glad we have cell phones. If someone is late, I usually give them around 15 minutes, then I call. If there is no answer, I leave a message stating that if they are not there in another 15 minutes or I don't get a phone call, I move to plan B and no...

Can you answer these questions?

magnet @magnet (2087) • United States 9 Feb 08
