Well, I've been looking up a few different methods of art, besides my typical chalk pastel method. I like exploring different areas of art, and learning where I have natural talent to improve, and where I might have some potential with a lot of practice. So far I've attempted water color painting, hand drawing (Both realism and other), oil painting, chalk pastels, a tiny bit with oil pastels, and tons of shading and graduating pieces. I've also done a little bit of ink art; stippling, squibbling, cross stitching, ect. Since I'm doing really good in chalk patel drawings, I decided I'm moving on to something else for now. I am terrible in any kind of painting, I tried several types, it is way to uncontrolled for me to work with.
So, I am showing you guys a few different art methods, for you guys to maybe consider to:
Painting Using liquid pigment and a brushOil Painting, Watercolor Painting, Acrylic Painting
Pastels Uhh... Self explanatoryChalk Pastel, Oil Pastel
Freehand Drawings Drawing with a pencil, pen, or other controlled hand held drawing untenilCharcoal, Pencil, Colored Pencil, Marker, Wax Crayon, Ballpoint Pen
Loose Ink Using uncontrolled ink and dabbling and smearing it across the canvas Loose ink

Loose ink is the one I plan on giving a try next, I've done some stippling, and would like to try something completely new. I'll post some picture once I purchase ink and start using it =P
That bird is amazing, I love how the artists made it! Its so incredible...
