I have a love-hate relationship to mirrors. More often than not, I feel like the mirror is not telling me the truth. |

If a surprise forces me to change my plans, I will not like it one bit. If they do not, however, I will rarely have a positive reaction (unless it is evidently linked to my interests), but neither will I dislike it. I do tend to be uncomfortable with wrapped gifts, though, when you are supposed to l... |

I would probably say yes. For the major part of my life, art has been my focal point. But about a year ago, I suddenly lost the interest, deciding to pursue my interest of writing, instead - something which I started with as a younger teen, but had been practising alongside of art until that point. ... |

I don't know if this is what you meant, but I like simple colour pencils. There was a time when I used to use them to recreate photographs, and I found it very enjoyable to see how close to the original I could come with traditional means. I just use a 24-set with colour pencils and your average pri... |

I've only been painting for about a year. I've just started at a class for a couple of hours a week, to learn the basics. My father also used to paint with oils. Oils certainly stand the test of time, except the blues maybe, can lighten over time if kept in a sunny spot. Then I must say, you're doi... |

Hi ccgensou, glad you like it. :D I like acrylics very much, they dry so much quicker than oil and they're more 'substantial' than watercolour, although I like using acrylics with a lot of water for washes. The colours seem more vibrant than watercolours. I tend to paint from photographs, usually f... |

That is very nicely done, I am rather amazed. Do you often work in acrylics? I like when people try a realistic approach, so I enjoy looking at this. I hope you will post more works, I'd be truly interested in seeing them. Another thing that I was thinking about is; do you use a reference when you p... |

When I were younger, I had nightmares frequently. But then I started telling myself every night, before falling asleep, that I would not have a nightmare that night , and strangely enough, they did cease to come, after a while. Now they are rare, very far between. Although I did have a nightmare not... |

For Terry Pratchett, don't start with his first books. They haven't settled to the style at which he excels. If you like him, you can come back to them later. I would recommend starting with perhaps "Guards, Guards" or "Wyrd Sisters" to find out if you are going to be a fan. There is a loose order ... |

I'm currently immersed with reading Norwegian Wood, by Haruki Murakami, after recommendations from an online friend. |
