I work in acrylic. The funny part is how hard I try to make it LOOK like oils ... I should probably try them one of these days

Lovely job! I think you would like oils. I just started working with them and I am having fun. It's very different from my usual draw-every-feather style but it is rather enjoyable. Acrylics are fun too, and you're fantastic with them.

I know, I know ... but change is HARD! I've spent a lot of time getting away from the "paint every hair" mentality ... I wish I was even looser but I've decided to just embrace how my brain wants to do it. I'll upload a detail out of the painting and you can see that while it looks pretty realistic from a distance, up close it really is just a lot of layered colors.
