What is mixed media?
Show answer
Mixed media combines more than one medium in a single work, for example paint with ink, pastel, printed elements or collage. Layering different media builds rich texture, tonal variety and visual complexity that a single medium cannot achieve, and it lets an artist exploit the strengths of each. Mixed-media work is common in experimental and developmental practice because it encourages combination and discovery.
