| The medium I'm most comfortable with is probably ballpoint pen. I'm not very good at using colored pencils and I usually can't do big digital projects. |

| Ahhh.. well for the last few years Ive been almost exclusivly digital with photoshop. Due to training as a film maker I found the flexability of a digital medium allowed for a much faster film prodution. However, my original love was plain old graphite pencils and Ive recently discovered coloured inks. The other medium I use is TRIA markers. Id love some copics but they are hard to get over here and cost way too much to import. |

| I have a split personality when it comes to art. My work persona sculpts in plasticine (modelling clay) for 2D work I use watercolour, sometimes with wax, inks or pens, usually very small....I make ATCs, and for fun I make handbuilt textured ceramic pots. The OMM square is pretty much my only foray into computer generated art. |

| What I love about the university is that I can take a ton of classes and use a ton of different mediums! I haven't started doing mainly one, though when people ask I tell them I'm a painter because whatever I do seems to be very painterly. Of course when I started I was perhaps the greatest draftsman but worst artist. Hehehe. It's interesting how things change. 
 I do tend to work with oils a lot. So I'll say oil for now
  
 Hmm... come to think of it I don't have any experience in CG. I haven't taken that class yet!

| I do sketches, though I've dabbled in almost every traditional medium. I'm hoping to go back to art school this upcoming fall and see if I can't expand my knowledge of those techniques, as well as learn a thing or two about mediums I know nothing about, like Digital Art. 
 My favourite "dabble" so far has been photography. Unfortunately I don't own a camera- I borrow my older brother's from time to time. Hopefully I'll be able to get a bunch of awesome shots when I go home for Christmas.
