It’s OK to like more than one medium

Sometimes it’s hard to decide what your “favorite” art medium is. The good news? You don’t have to pick. Some artists do find themselves happy with one select thing whether that be ceramics, painting, metals, woodworking or whatever really. But it is not uncommon that an artist is talented at many different things. Don’t limit yourself just because you think you’re supposed to pick one thing. Explore your options. Even consider breaking the rules and combining your different mediums. The things you can create when you start combining things is limitless. I myself have started combining paint and pencil, and am beginning to reach new levels in my art that I never thought possible before.

I have said in previous posts to go with your gut. To find what you love and run with it. But if you love two things, run with them both. Art is meant to break rules and do the unordinary. Nothing can be considered right or wrong. Explore your options and maybe something great can come from it.
