Recently, I've been experimenting with a concept called 'mark-making', which has turned into a bit of an art journal. I'm enjoying this process so much - it's the perfect end to a long day of my very detail-oriented day job. Here I just get to be free and not think too much. So cathartic.
I've found that my fave medium du jour is gouache paint and super heavy drawing paper (much cheaper than watercolor paper). It's similar to acrylic paint, but can be watered down significantly, in order to create a watercolor effect. It's really the best of both worlds.
I strongly encourage you to give it a go!
