Is it a drawing or a painting?
Colored pencil artists sometimes refer to their work as paintings. Works in pastel are often called pastel paintings. Jo Wood, a bead embroidery artist, describes her work as painting with beads.
Regardless of where the line is drawn, so to speak, I feel as if I’m painting when I use oil-based colored pencils, which were used for Smethwick and Between the Drive and the Boulevard.
