Get more mixed media art ideas! Mixed media is a term used to describe artworks composed of a combination of different media or materials. For example, if you draw with ink, then paint over it with watercolors, then add some highlights in colored pencil - that's mixed media! 101 More Mixed Media Techniques is an exploration of the versatile world of mixed media art with Cherril Doty and Marsh Scott, Monica Moody and Heather Greenwood. It is divided into 17 sections with contributions from the four artists. Each section has it's own area of focus. A wide variety of techniques and materials are explored. All are listed below in the table of contents. Each section begins with a materials list, however keep in mind that mixed media is about experimenting with the materials available to you. Multiple ways of using each technique or material are shown with plenty of photos, clear instructions and examples. Discover new approaches to art making while creating a series of mixed media works. This book is a second edition - it's a follow up to the popular 101 Mixed Media Techniques. Walter Foster Publishing released this 128 page paperback on July 2, 2019. Get your copy below!
