Contemporary Mixed Media Art
The beginnings of mixed media painting are in the the later part of Victorian years from around 1870 to 1914, called "La Belle Epoque." Translated from the French, this basically means "the beautiful age," or "the gilded age." Fast advancements in science, technology and loosening social mores motivated artists of the time to discover uncharted waters of creative expression. As a result, the arts went through a significant transformation. New, progressive styles such as Impressionism and Art Nouveau began to cross over from the underground avant-garde to the mainstream.
In the visual arts, a mixed media painting is actually a work of art which employs multiple medium. An example of mixed media might be a collage that has paint, seashells, and bird feathers. A very common technique for painters is mixing oil, watercolour and acrylic paints into a single painting. Basically any mixture can be used, confined only by the artists' creative thinking and available materials. A mixed media collage has numerous design layers, each one made from a different medium. An artist can make use of any medium he or she wishes, but paper, pencil, marker, and pen are usually employed in a mixed media collage. These types of collages can possibly be two-dimensional display art, like a painting on a canvas or a page in a scrapbook, or a three-dimensional sculpture.
Another variation of modern mixed media painting is combining paint with other paper media including pen-and-ink drawings. Advances in technology also make it less difficult for today's artists to mix traditional printmaking methods with digital photography or images. Multimedia art, a related form, was inspired by mixed media painting. Multimedia art differs from mixed media in that non visual elements can be utilized. An example might be mixing recorded music, dance as well as spoken word poetry into a single work. The different art supplies being utilized by mixed media artists range from the conventional to the imaginative. Oil- and water-based paints are regularly utilized in mixed media artwork along with ink, pastels, and pencils. In maintaining the non traditional facet of mixed media art, wide variety of things is utilized in mixed media sculpture and also in collage art. Contemporary mixed media artists have been known to make use of string, buttons, newspaper clippings, and bits of glass or metal in their mixed media art installations.
Mixed media is typically made in layers. The artist chooses every layer with care and allows sufficient time for each layer to dry properly. Discovered things such as bottle caps, matchbooks, or stones are often employed for effect. Bits of jewelry, mismatched buttons, pencils, bolts, cereal boxes, screws as well as nails may provide some additional visual colour as well as interest. Using these kinds of elements in a mixed media painting can impart new meaning to these kinds of seemingly insignificant things. This technique adds even more texture and even depth to the artwork.
Only the imagination restricts a mixed media artwork. A few mixed media artists work only with natural substances to deliver an earth-friendly message. Reused materials are often used in mixed media art projects, making it possible for artists to express their creativity by repurposing daily things as well as used items. Metal containers, plastic containers, and locally made materials could help tell a particular story by means of art.
