You are welcome. I remember you wrote about enjoying using different art materials and experimenting with them.

Love to read this Nino, I can say it's my favourite post from yours! ❀️ I relate so much with all you described, I don't want to get sticked to one or two materials, I love the thrill of exploring new things and the fun I experience along the way...plus I don't need to focus on discovering my artistic voice (that will happen naturally with time and practice) or to just do the art that please others. I always have in my mind that I make art for me first, what comes after is always a bonus. Have a nice weekend πŸ‘‹

Yes, yes, yes! There was a moment earlier this year where I was sketching with a group. We were all sitting apart, so you did not necessarily know what everyone else was doing. I used a new material for the first time. Afterwards we did a β€œthrow down” and looked at each others work. One of the guys exclaimed, β€œThis is probably by Nino.” He recognised my work right through the new material. That’s the thing with style, it follows you. Not the other way around.
