So someone who works in watercolours is called a watercolourist. (Despite the fact that the spell check doesn't seem to like the word! )
Well what about those who work in oils or acrylics etc How about:
Oilifiers
Acrylicisers
Gouachers
Pastelicators
Pinkers (Pen and ink - thought I'd better explain that one).
Any other suggestions? Perhaps if we can get a consensus and use the terms regularly on this forum they will become accepted and we will have achieved something - a first for the forum!
Oh well - back to my paintifications.
