I always preferred oils because they stay wet for so long. I can work on the painting for an hour today, then go back tomorrow and work some more, etc. Even if it starts drying, some mineral spirits gets things going again. And since I lean more towards realism, I can slowly layer and blend over time.

I dabbled a little in water color not long ago and I have some ollllld pencil stuff back from my school days I should dig up and photograph.
