The Mixed Media Art Workshop is a course designed for anyone who likes painting, everyone who want to learn, who want to try new ways to express the imagination, who are not afraid to make fun mistakes, beginners, intermediate or advanced students, all people who feel happy while painting and wish to be creative.
In earlier lessons we have referred to abstract art which is used as an idea, since it does not represent the material world, it represents the spiritual… All that is needed is an open mind and a great imagination. There is no right or wrong answer, for Abstract Art that is open to interpretation, gives you the freedom to explore the work and assign your own meaning to a piece. Abstract art requires ingenuity that invites you to discover yourself, the first step is to prepare yourself to look beyond the things you already know or recognize. Abstract Paintings does not allow you to decide everything, but requires you to act ……
Mixed Media Art Technique is a favourite technique, it only needs a little love for painting, a little strong mood for experimentation, and it will make the new artists love it a lot. Beyond the infinite possibilities it gives us our art, it results in us to becoming more creative and flexible, and in a way it has become a philosophy for all of us.
As you will read in the theory you will find in the lesson, the history of this Mixed Technique goes back to the Byzantine era, the Renaissance period, the beginning of 1912 where artists began to redefine their views on behaviour towards art. We can identify many artists who associated their name with Mixed Art.
The Mixed Technique gave us the impetus to look for new materials and the combination between them. It gives us more freedom of expression every day as it increasingly causes our vision to violate every limit. In this way our creative gaze expands and evolves, which makes us happier. We believe that the future of mixed media seems infinite and can only be limited by our imagination.
By definition, it is the artistic process in which more than one technique is used. In short, it is the kind that gives you the possibility of combining different materials, which through their composition produces a special and distinct result.
My topic today has to do with something I see every day and every time I am fascinated by the same. I have the blessing of living in a suburb of the city, close to the sea, this allows me to collect many pictures of them. So what we are going to do today is a picture of a boat that happened to be on a difficult day with a downpour. But I did not want to present it realistically and of course I used the technique that gave me unlimited possibilities for a different approach.
So I will teach you some methods and give you the knowledge to start your own painting even if you are a complete beginner, or I will help you take your painting style to the next level as an intermediate or advanced student / painter.
As now, you know some course points and what you will learn, what I will provide to you, let’s be creative……
Let yourself loose …. For this trip….
