I'm partial to colored pencil and am diving head first into watercolors lately, which I'm really enjoying!

Permalink Reply by Jennifer on April 7, 2010 at 1:14pm I love colored pencil, too! I also enjoy oil pastel, acrylic, watercolor, pen & ink, pencil, linocut, collage, assemblage, mixed media, sewing, etc., etc... (not necessarily in order of preference)! 
Permalink Reply by Lesley DeSantis on April 7, 2010 at 1:54pm It's so hard to pick, isn't it??I want to get even better at watercolors. They're so fun and so portable. I have this little travel kit that unfolds and it's much less of an 'event' to get started if I feel like painting than whipping out my acrylic tubes, palette, etc. And washing brushes couldn't get much easier either haha

Permalink Reply by Jennifer on April 7, 2010 at 2:05pm Ooh, I have a travel watercolor kit, too -- one of my very favorite tools! It's W&N Cotman brand (http://tinyurl.com/y9tx9x7), but I refilled it with better quality watercolors. Now if I could only find the time to actually get out there and use it! :)Lesley DeSantis said:

Permalink Reply by flaurena on April 14, 2010 at 2:23pm I love oil paint, especially now that you can buy water miscible oil paints... I sometimes use metal leaf in my art, and I also draw in ink. Permalink Reply by Lesley DeSantis on April 14, 2010 at 2:25pm Oh neat, Lauren. I've always kind of wondered how the water mixing oil paints are. Do they have the same feel as regular oils? I've never tried them.Lauren Cross (flaurena™) said:

Permalink Reply by clp studio on April 25, 2010 at 6:17am I use a leather acrylic paint and a leather acrylic sealer for my bags and shoes. It works great on vinyl and canvas bags as well. It has a "flex" additive to help prevent against cracking and chipping. Unfortunately, there is no portability with it.
