    One tree, two trees, three trees... ...a hundred trees...
    Can't I draw a forest differently?
    Five hundred trees...
    There must be a simpler way...
    Thousand trees...
    But would another method of drawing have such a nice effect?

    IC, you are a brave man ! Slightly unhinged but aren't we, people who dare take on the great darkness of the primordial forests, all ?

    You either have to be stark raving mad to begin such madness, or go mad in the process!

    My respect to you sir! Also, I'm a bit scared now

    Heheh, and here I thought I hated drawing forests, and I make mine digitally so I can cheat by duplicating some of what I draw! I'll have to second Thomas there: you are brave soul, my good sir

    Forests... was there ever another such love-hate relationship?

    I wonder if I was the first to figure out that you can use vodka for watercolors.
    You will ask: why?
    Well, because vodka dries faster and does not deform paper.
    Am I a genius?

    Wouldn't it just be easier to use isopropyl alcohol or denatured alcohol or methyl hydrate, which is cheap? It is an interesting idea.

    Isopropyl & denatured alcohol stinks awfully! Strong alcohol discolours the paint too much. So I use vodka (In Poland, it's cheap).

    It's good to know. I got to try it sometime.
