Media and Style

For AP 2D this year I would like to do more collages and paint with acrylic. I really liked making collages and I want to use different media other than paper, such as paint and pictures combined. I tried painting with acrylic last year but didn't like it at all. This year I will try to experiment and hopefully improve my painting skills. During the summer I only got into watercolor, but already I feel like painting is maybe the thing for me instead of drawing. Styles that I'm currently interested in are psychedelia and surrealism. In fact, psychedelic art almost contradicts my own style, but I can't help loving it. While a part of me screams "less is more!", another part is drooling all over the complex trippy details. I also love surrealism, although I should probably look at more surrealist art other than Dali's. My sister once said that the artworks at our school have very normal subjects. I don't know if it's true but I should definitely try to draw something out of my comfort zone; something really weird.
