Oh Billie, I still miss smooshing those oils around. I don't have a safe place to paint now and I want to so badly. I was never very good at it, but I loved mixing the colors and starting early in the morning before the kids got up.
I have to get my aggression out with software now, sigh. When my neck and mouse arm go, I sew for awhile until my back gives out, lol.
I have to say that I don’t miss painting. I’ve done most all the mediums (oil, water color, pastel, acrylic, pen & ink), but I’ve always really preferred just #2 pencil. I just like to ‘draw’ best. :)
