Painting is.... different. I mean it's fun and all and it's a great thing to paint my pictures after I draw them, but I mean come on, you can't tell me that after you draw something and then color it that it honestly looks better?
I am a much better drawer than I am painter or 'colorer'. When I draw, I prefer a more sketch approach. I almost never really draw straight lines, and when I do, it's only because I'm trying hard to. And some of the times it never comes out that good.
Back on topic though, painting is so much fun but only when you know what you're doing. Color is pretty much permanent and to a artist/drawer, it's like a gun. One shot and the entire drawing is gone. There's no erasing it like you can do when you're just drawing or free handing, no. Once you have drawn a master piece but are forced to color it, that's when an artists life or death comes in.
Don't get me wrong, I have done some really good paintings along with my drawing, but I would much rather leave my drawings blank, for the imagination of the viewer to go wild on.
