MIXED MEDIA ART JOURNALLING
Mixed media is a fancy way of saying “I’m using whatever art supplies I want!” Mixed media journals are all about layers: combining different types of paints and inks with layers created by other tools and materials. Similar to the way in which a hand-written diary might be formatted, entries in an art journal can be reflective, highly personal, and generally something you create for yourself.
