Synopsis

Designed to offer insight into the methods and materials used by contemporary artists, The Innovative Artist series pairs practical demonstrations with examples of the author’s own work. In this volume, Helen Kaminsky focuses on mixed media approaches to abstraction, building imagery through layers of colour, texture and experimental technique.

Inside, readers are guided through ways to combine and blend paint with unusual materials, explore collage, try printing and mark-making with found objects, and introduce homemade stencils and stamps. Techniques feature charcoal, gesso, oil pastels, wet and dry media, printing and mark-making materials, and collage. Aimed at artists looking to explore mixed media in fresh ways, it suits those seeking to broaden their process through experimentation.
