Create stunning layered mixed-media art and discover your unique creative voice with the techniques, ideas, and projects in Getting Started in Mixed Media.

Combining watercolor, acrylic paint, pencil, ink, and crayon can produce incredible artwork—or a big, hot mess. Laura Horn will show you how to skip the mess and go straight to incredible by working both intuitively and mindfully. And, you’ll discover ways to develop your own personal style in the process.

See how easy it is to turn a blank page into cohesive artwork, starting with easy techniques to create an abstract foundation with watercolor. Then, build on the shapes, adding patterns, marks, and more color. All the while, you’ll learn how pattern and color add unity and flow to a piece.

In Getting Started in Mixed Media, you’ll also discover:
  • Ways to experiment with a variety of marks and motifs, and how to make them your own
  • How different supplies interact, and how to play with unexpected results
  • Where to find color palette inspiration
  • The importance of using a range of color values 
  • How to work with unconventional tools
  • How to evaluate and edit a piece
No matter where you are in your mixed-media explorations, this book will add fresh ideas to your repertoire and allow your creativity to soar.
