Every artist can confirm that the more you love the tools you’re working with, the easier it is to transfer your ideas into art. To end up working with brushes you love, you must make more informed, better decisions when shopping for new painting brushes. Many art brush types are available today, making it challenging for beginner artists to find the right ones for their creative needs and painting styles.
A lot of people confuse the terms “art mediums” and “painting mediums”, but they’re not the same. Art mediums are the tools we use to create art. This includes clay, oil, pastel, watercolour, pen, pencil etc. Painting mediums, on the other hand, are something we mix into the paint to change its consistency, flow, texture, drying time and sheen. Doing this makes the paint much more versatile and adds more visual interest.
Drawing and painting are two completely different things. Even though both of them are visual arts that can be done on paper and canvas or even on metal and wood surfaces, they are mainly different in the media they use. While you need brushes, paints and some other supplies for painting, for drawing you’ll only need professional artist pens and that’s it.
