I just find oils are usually way more attractive. I have tried several mediums but I probably have a huge emotional attachment to oils and graphite as pure medium. I have personal preferences for musical instruments, dance, and ritual forms too. The comparison roots back to my mother moving me from acrylics to oils when I was about 17 years old. She spilled some plain oil into water to demonstrate that they do not mix without an emulsifier of some kind. She also pointed out that although the water has a placid reflection the oil makes a rainbow. I still find the oils harder to use but the effects are always better.....unless I really want an acrylic effect. I sort of "draw" with the acrylics so they are great for sketching but oils are truly imagination made manifest for me. Each ,medium does have it's distinctive advantages but the smell, feel, and pliability of oil are just in a thing their own. I find it is really relaxing to just paint with oil, almost meditative.
