My Mixed Media Journey
I dipped my toes into mixed media a few years ago - and I fell in love with this type of art immediately! My creative background was in card making and then scrapbooking.
When I tried mixed media one of the first things I learned was THERE ARE NO RULES - just let me repeat that:
THERE ARE NO RULES!!!!
That's what I like...the freedom of making art that doesn't have to be perfect, pretty or neat!
Some of the courses and people that have inspired and helped me:
-
Wanderlust on-line mixed media course
