The beauty of mixed media is the creative freedom it provides to the individual artist. It enables you to combine various creative mediums to create a work of art that includes multiple forms. Once an artist understands that there are no limits to what their art can be, everything suddenly becomes a potential canvas. Mixed media empowers you in that respect, giving you the tools to explore and reshape your creative boundaries.
What is mixed media?
The history of mixed media art is still relatively new, with its origins found in the early years of the 20th century. The cubist works of Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque in 1912 are largely seen as the start point, and as attitudes become more open and inclusive, mixed media art was able to rapidly evolve over the last 100 years.
Mixed media shouldn’t be confused with multi-media, however. While both describe the use of a range of materials, multi-media focusses on incorporating video, electronic media, film and audio, which is different to mixed media.
When it comes to mixed media, it can involve the combination of any medium. For example, if you are a painter who traditionally uses a canvas, this could be transferred onto a piece of wood or any other object, such as furniture. You can even be a digital artist who prints out your work and then pastes them onto a form, painting over it to create an entirely new sculpture.
What happens in the mixed media Good Lord Ganesha class?
Lord Ganesha is one of the most important and respected figures in the Hindu religion, with many seeking blessings from him as The Deity of Good Fortune.
You can choose your own picture of Lord Ganesha to work with, or use your own sketch if you have one. As a mixed media class you will need a number of materials such as a palette knife, texture paste, metallic colour tubes, stones, embellishments, flowers, glue and brushes.
This is a one-on-one class that runs over Zoom, with each lesson lasting for one hour, and the full course comprises of 7 lessons. I will help you learn how to handle the use of a palette knife, while also teaching you about space division, blending and artistic layout.
