Art Without Risk is Not Art


Art without risk is not art . Why is that ? Well , you cant know until you try. You cant know if your good at colored pencils until you try them. You cant know if your good with acrylic paints until you try it . You cant know if your not good at watercolor if you don't try it . Art is the art of experimenting. You have to try , re-order and brake glue until you get it right. Until it fits your vision.


Experimenting With Mediums


First I would experiment with mediums . There is a variety of mediums you can choose from. There is watercolor paint, oil paint , markers , colored pencils, pastels , oil pastels, charcoal , or just pencil. I would first try them individually . Try doing studies with each medium and how to control each. Finally I would bring two different mediums together and see how that works for you .Layer one medium on top of the other. Experiment , take risk , and adjust accordingly.


Experimenting With Base


When people think of art their minds go straight to canvas art. In reality , there are different materials to chose from. You can paint on wood, or paint on paper. There are also different design of canvases that you can choose from. There are canvases that are shaped like triangles or as circles


Now that I have given you everything you need to experiment . Go take risks ! I wish you all happy and peaceful art making .
