I think they're still drawings primarily, because I build up my brush strokes as if they were big fat colored pen marks. I get insanely jealous when I look at paintings that use paint for it's own unique qualities.carmackarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08526205807572430953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4152373441393799007.post-59342222643428154032010-08-19T09:52:18.272-04:002010-08-19T09:52:18.272-04:00Thanks!

In other words, I think she meant depending on how much of the paper is exposed (unpainted, un-inked, left bare) can make an art piece a drawing.Seth Fittshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16027189585037239226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4152373441393799007.post-83309108554380408362010-08-18T23:53:37.959-04:002010-08-18T23:53:37.959-04:00Well, you can draw with paint, and create a pencil...Well, you can draw with paint, and create a pencil/pastel work that looks like it could have been painted. It's an interesting thing to try and figure out, but ultimately everyone will have a different definition. Like Fiona said, it's a personal thing. There are broad difinitions, some maybe too vague or narrow, and if there is a question, it should be up the the connotaion percieved be the artist.Marianna Caskohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11407650787489954160noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4152373441393799007.post-84059342150952949542010-08-18T21:18:49.014-04:002010-08-18T21:18:49.014-04:00It depends... if you draw with them, or paint with...It depends... if you draw with them, or paint with them XD<br /><br />I think you have to think of it more in terms ot "to draw" and "to paint" as opposed to "a drawing" or "a painting" <br /><br />I consider pretty much everything I do drawing, even when I use paint as a media to express this...
