I was just on your other account looking at some illustrations. i noticed you use prismacolor markers a lot and i was planning on buying some myself, but wasn't sure if i should. do you recommend them? are they any good? and your photographs are very beautiful btw

Yeah prismacolors are great! They are pretty affordable compared to other art markers, they aren't too wet and they have great colors. I would recommend buying them off ebay if you are looking to save money. I've gotten all my markers from ebay and never had a problem with them being lightly used. A lot of people buy them for awhile and don't use them much... so you can find a good deal.
Thanks for contacting me here! I really don't check the other accounts anymore.

yeah i've been searching ebay daily and have found pretty good deals. it's just i was looking at a lot of reviews and was kinda confused about them, and i couldn't decide if they'd be a waste of money or not :sweatdrop: so i decided to find someone who clearly used them a lot and ask them personally what they think. do i need special paper to use them on? some ppl say you do and some say you dont... thank you for helping me out anyways. and yeah i looked at your recent activity for your other accounts and realized i'd be waiting for a while for a reply

Yeah, I would recommend special paper. I mean, you don't want to use it on printing paper!
They make rag paper for markers and stuff that is thin and good for not soaking through, but I really enjoy working on Bristol board because it's thick. You can get bristol vellum or matte, there are lots of options. It's good for charcoal and pencils too!

I'm in Switzerland now, falling madly in love with my Swiss man Kay and living with a family as an au pair while taking German classes. (I hope I become fluent sooome day) Things are busy but good! I'll be here for a year before the Swiss try to boot me out unless I find another work visa.

Haha, he is probably really cynical about it. 
I'm voting Obama all the way. I'm really ready for all the madness to be over... and God I hope Ohio is a blue state this year. It's really gonna be strange to find out what the results are! (kind of terrifying)
I hope you're doing well! Where are you along in school now?
