    Thank you for stopping by!
    In this video, I start with making marks with a china marker or pencil, then apply thin layers of acrylic paint using a brayer in a simple grid format. I use a simple color palette. I then add my larger collage pieces to activate the space. I continue by alternating between paint and paper.
    By creating a series using layers, it is easier to deal with one layer at a time by responding to what is there.
    Hello and Welcome! I am Michele Holden, a mixed media artist. I incorporate many layers of marks, paint, mediums, and collage as the canvas becomes a multilayered surface that speaks to both the visual and the intuitive senses.
    I have been painting for many years and decided to become a mixed media artist in 2015. You can follow my art journey on Instagram, Facebook, and Pinterest (links below). Feel free to ask any questions below and let me know what part of the episode or even other videos were helpful to you.
    If you like this video, please give it a thumbs up. This helps me understand what types of videos I should create.

    Thank you for your videos! I really appreciate how you talk about the work and not about your cat or kids like so many of these videos do, it makes me want to watch every minute, I also love how you say what your materials are. simplicity is so appealing and it really inspires me to try whatever your trying. I subscribed as soon as i heard your voice and straight forward style.

    I've been collecting corrugated cardboard and was going to use it stuck down in my collage but didn't think of it as a stencil as well.

      Unfortunately, I totally agree. If an artist chooses to not speak, either directly or voiceover, then music is fine - I just mute it and watch. But, when you’re speaking, and explaining your thought processes, I’m really interested; I still have to mute you though because the music is fighting your lovely, soothing voice, and largely winning.
      Really fantastic pieces though, I love your colour & pattern choices - I just wish I knew what your ideas were behind them - the subtitles help to some extent though.

      It does at first. Just keep going. Try different alternating layers of marks in different areas of the substrate. Thin, thick, lighter, darker, sharp,soft, etc. This will begin a composition you did not even plan.
