Follow up to Generalized Art Post #1, which is getting long (and probably long to load as well).

Art may be posted as comments here. :) Please limit width to 600 pixels (and for on-screen viewing you probably want to limit to 72 dpi as well, so the filesizes don't blow up).

I've really been enjoying seeing the creativity of those of you who make art & graphics. :) Thank you for sharing your works!

Thank you! (Somebody tell me what else to make with silver gouache? I bought a tube of it, but I feel weird about fake metal in actual re-enactment contexts . . .)

Okay, I bite: where do you get silver gouache, and can you get it in gold as well? I'm sitting on gouache in Titanium White and Carmine for Art Purposes but I confess it hadn't occurred to me to look for metallics...=D

Any place you get other gouache, and yes, you can definitely get gold as well. I have a little tiny bit of shell gold that works the same way but is genuinely gold metal.

Thanks, good to know!

Ahahahaha one of my favorite artists (Stephanie Pui-Mun Law) is primarily a watercolorist who has taken to putting ACTUAL GOLD LEAF on her paintings. Like, I am not nearly good enough at art to be spending $$$ on genuine gold. XD It sure looks pretty, though!

I . . . am just not that good at applying gold leaf, heh. It's hard to get a crisp edge and I really ought to get someone to give me a proper lesson.
