Mixed Media Art

Creating artwork with mixed media means using a mixture of materials and techniques. Artists often incorporate elements of collage, painting, drawing, and sculpture. You could use traditional art supplies like acrylic paint, watercolours, and pencils. Or mix up your creation with using materials such as textiles, metal, glass, beads and more. Techniques that are often used are layering, texture building, decoupage, and stencils. By combining different materials, techniques, and visual elements this allows a wide of range of creative possibilities.
