Description:

i'm thrilled with the great turn out in round 1, so let's do this again!

This is the second in a series of swaps exploring the art of mixed media on a small canvas. This time around, i'm changing it up a little. For this one, color is artist's/sender's choice. Any and all colors are welcome to the party! Last time we played with texture, and i encourage you to add texture if you wish this time, but it's not necessary. For this round, let's explore typography and text.

You will create one piece of mixed media art on a stretched, box canvas for one partner. (Can be any brand you choose). Sender’s choice in keeping with the following guidelines:

•Canvas: Stretched canvas: boxed canvas, mounted on wooden frame, not cardboard or canvas boards. Must be at least 4”x4” but no larger than 5”x7” (can be square or rectangular, 6”x6” is fine, or any size between the measurements given).
•Mediums: Incorporate at least 3 different mediums in your work, such as acrylic paint, collage, watercolor, pastels, pen and ink, rubber stamping, image transfers, printmaking, illustration, etc. Your choice of mediums, but make sure to use at least 3 different ones.
•Color: Artist's/sender's choice.
•Typography/text: This can be added in a variety of ways including but not limited to painted letters/words, book pages, your own handwriting, etc. It can be a background element or the main image, your choice as long as your piece contains text of some kind.

i’m giving a decent amount of time for this so that everyone can enjoy the process and not feel rushed. Please be sure to package up your creation carefully to safely reach its destination. Make sure you sign your work!

This is a great group, but i will still check profiles before assigning partners. i am more than happy to answer any questions you may have.

Let the media mixing mayhem commence!

Round #3 in this series may be postponed until late July or possibly early August, but it will come around again as long as there's interest!
