I love drawing and painting. I have been selling my painting for several years now. I love working with oil paints and pastels. I am wondering if others enjoy painting and if so what is your chosen medium? Do you sell your work?

I sold one piece in high school for 60 dollars. It was a scratchboard of Athens, Greece. The acropolis to be specific, in the background, trees in the middle ground, and rocks and grass in the foreground. I unfortunately don't have a picture of it. I think I could have sold more, but I wasn't really trying. I like to paint in pen and watercolor, ink, and acrylic. My artwork is here: pokumon.deviantart.com. Please take a look!

Wow! Fantastic! You do great work! You should definitely be making some money from it! You should check out some of the Freelance sites and bid on some few art jobs, they are always looking for graphic artists and illustraters for books etc. You have great talent!

I like painting too, I use acrylics more because it has no smell compared to oil. But oil is definitely a good medium since it takes longer to dry, it also looks more "grand" compared to acrylics, maybe because it looks more traditional and more legendary, just my opinion though... Also,my works are always on sale, even if no one is buying it XD
