I'm into color-pencils these past days...trying to re-explore and learn even more about this emerging trends (?) among collectors in the world art scene and engage myself browsing about the medium on the net. Found some very helpful tips and tricks.

While most of my contemporaries are engage in watercolor and pastels as alternative medium, I'm trying to re-direct my attentions on one of the first art materials that I had the most familiarity probably since grade school. I weigh consequences on my head before I decided on this alternative medium (I call this alternative medium since I still prefer to scale the summit of acrylic) by taking visual note from my friends.

Master J's group and Sir Fredi's group explore the oil-pastel medium during their sessions. While still other busy themselves in watercolor...and between these choices jamming on my head, and actually almost jump into soft-pastel, a material that I had never used before.....the winner by gut feel is color-pencils by availability of resources.
As I've said before that I'm more at ease doing work on paper surfaces than canvas although they said canvas is easier to maneuver. Perhaps, it's my familiarity with various paper grade also which helped me with an advantage on this field. The portability of color-pencils also help in the process since I don't like setting up too many stuff.
