What is Mixed Media Art ?

In visual art, mixed media is an artwork in which more than one medium or material has
been employed. Assemblages and collages are two common examples of art using
different medias that will make use of different materials including cloth, paper,
and/or wood. [1]
When an artist is doing painting or photography work using mixed media, care should
be taken to allow enough drying time between layers, to ensure the final work will have
structural integrity. If several different mixed medias are used with the artwork, it is
important to choose a sturdy foundation upon which the different media layers are
imposed.
Many artistic effects can be achieved by using mixed media. Found objects can be used
in conjunction with traditional artist media to attain a wide range of self-expression.
Some children's picture books also use mixed media illustrations. For example, 's
Nachts by Wolf Erlbruch.
Mixed media art, a visual art, is distinguished from multimedia art which combines visual
art with non-visual elements, such as recorded sound, literature, drama, dance, motion
graphics, music, or interactivity.

Traditional drawing media

Acrylic paint- Acrylic paint is a fast-drying paint made of pigment suspended


in acrylic polymer emulsion. Acrylic paints are water-soluble, but become water-
resistant when dry. Depending on how much the paint is diluted with water, or modified
with acrylic gels, mediums, or pastes, the finished acrylic painting can resemble
a watercolor, a gouache or an oil painting, or have its own unique characteristics not
attainable with other media.[1] Acrylic paint is typically used for crafting, or in art classes
in schools because it does not require any chemicals, and rinses away with just water. It
also is less likely to leave a stain on clothes than oil paint.

Airbrush - An airbrush is a small, air-operated tool that sprays various media, most
often paint but also ink and dye, and foundation by a process of nebulization. Spray
paintingdeveloped from the airbrush and is considered to employ a type of airbrush
Chalk -is a soft, white, porous, sedimentary carbonate rock, a form
of limestone composed of the mineral calcite. Calcite is an ionic salt called calcium
carbonate or CaCO3. It forms under reasonably deep marine conditions from the
gradual accumulation of minute calcite shells (coccoliths) shed from micro-organisms
called coccolithophores. Flint (a type of chert) is very common as bands parallel to
the bedding or as nodules embedded in chalk. It is probably derived from sponge
spicules or other siliceous organisms as water is expelled upwards during compaction.
Flint is often deposited around larger fossils such as Echinoidea which may
be silicified (i.e. replaced molecule by molecule by flint).

Charcoal -is a form of dry art medium made of finely ground organic materials that are
held together by a gum or wax binder or produced without the use of binders by
eliminating the oxygen inside the material during the production
process.[1] These charcoals are often used by artists for their versatile properties, such
as the rough texture that leaves marks less permanent than other art media.[2] Charcoal
can produce lines that are very light or intensely black, while being easily removable,
yet vulnerable to leaving stains on paper. The dry medium can be applied to almost any
surface from smooth to very coarse. Fixatives are often used with charcoal drawings to
solidify the position to prevent erasing or rubbing off of charcoal dusts.

Crayon- (or wax pastel) is a stick of colored wax, charcoal, chalk or other material used
for writing or drawing. A crayon made of pigment with a dry binder is a pastel; when
made of oiled chalk, it is called an oil pastel. A grease pencil or Chinese
marker (UK chinagraph pencil) is made of colored hardened grease. There are also
watercolor crayons, sometimes called water-soluble crayons.

Oil paste-l (also called wax oil crayon) is a painting and drawing medium with
characteristics similar to pastels and wax crayons. Unlike "soft" or "Japanese" pastel
sticks, which are made with a gum or methyl cellulose binder, oil pastels consist
of pigment mixed with a non-drying oil and wax binder. The surface of an oil pastel
painting is therefore less powdery, but more difficult to protect with a fixative. Oil pastels
provide a harder edge than "soft" or "French" pastels but are more difficult to blend.

Soft pastel -(UK: /ˈpæstəl/, US: /pæˈstɛl/) is an art medium in the form of a stick,
consisting of pure powdered pigment and a binder. The pigments used in pastels are
the same as those used to produce all colored art media, including oil paints; the binder
is of a neutral hue and low saturation. The color effect of pastels is closer to the natural
dry pigments than that of any other process.
Graphite- (/ˈɡræfaɪt/), archaically referred to as plumbago, is a crystalline form of the
element carbon with its atoms arranged in a hexagonal structure. It occurs naturally in
this form and is the most stable form of carbon under standard conditions. Under high
pressures and temperatures it converts to diamond.

Oil paint -is a type of slow-drying paint that consists of particles of pigment suspended
in a drying oil, commonly linseed oil. The viscosity of the paint may be modified by the
addition of a solvent such as turpentine or white spirit, and varnish may be added to
increase the glossiness of the dried oil paint film. Oil paints have been used in Europe
since the 12th century for simple decoration, but were not widely adopted as an artistic
medium until the early 15th century. Common modern applications of oil paint are in
finishing and protection of wood in buildings and exposed metal structures such as
ships and bridges. Its hard-wearing properties and luminous colors make it desirable for
both interior and exterior use on wood and metal. Due to its slow-drying properties, it
has recently been used in paint-on-glass animation. Thickness of coat has considerable
bearing on time required for drying: thin coats of oil paint dry relatively quickly.

Pen and Ink- is a writing instrument used to apply ink to a surface, usually paper, for
writing or drawing.[1] Historically, reed pens, quill pens, and dip pens were used, with
a nibdipped in ink. Ruling pens allow precise adjustment of line width, and still find a few
specialized uses, but technical pens such as the Rapidograph are more commonly
used. Modern types include ballpoint, rollerball, fountain and felt or ceramic tip pens.[2]

Pencil - is an implement for writing or drawing constructed of a narrow,


solid pigment core inside a protective casing which prevents the core from being broken
and/or from leaving marks on the user’s hand during use.
Pencils create marks by physical abrasion, leaving behind a trail of solid core material
that adheres to a sheet of paper or other surface. They are distinct from pens, which
instead dispense liquid or gel ink onto the surface being marked.
Most pencil cores are made of graphite powder mixed with a clay binder. Graphite
pencils (traditionally known as 'lead pencils') are used for both writing and drawingand
produce durable grey or black marks that can be erased easily. Though writing is easily
removable with an eraser, it is otherwise resistant to moisture, most
chemicals, ultraviolet radiation and natural aging. Other types of pencil core are less
widely used, such as charcoal pencils, which are mainly used by artists for drawing
and sketching. Coloured pencils are sometimes used by teachers or editors to correct
submitted texts, but are typically regarded as art supplies, especially those with waxy
core binders that tend to smear on paper instead of erasing. Grease pencils have a
softer, crayon-like waxy core that can leave marks on smooth surfaces such as glass or
porcelain.
The most common type of pencil casing is of thin wood, usually hexagonal in section
but sometimes cylindrical or triangular, permanently bonded to the core. Similar
permanent casings may be constructed of other materials such as plastic or paper. To
use the pencil, the casing must be carved or peeled off to expose the working end of the
core as a sharp point. Mechanical pencils have more elaborate casings which are not
permanently bonded to the core. Instead, the casing supports a separate, mobile piece
of pigment core that can be extended or retracted through the casing tip as needed;
these pencil casings can be re-loaded with a new core (usually graphite) when
necessary.

Ballpoint pen-, also known as a biro[1] or ball pen, is a pen that dispenses ink (usually
in paste form) over a metal ball at its point, i.e. over a "ball point". The metal commonly
used is steel, brass, or tungsten carbide.[2] It was conceived and developed as a cleaner
and more reliable alternative to dip pens and fountain pens, and it is now the world's
most-used writing instrument:[3] millions are manufactured and sold daily.[4] As a result, it
has influenced art and graphic design and spawned an artwork genre.

Marker pen,- fineliner, marking pen, felt-tip marker, felt-tip


pen, flow marker, texta (in Australia), sketch pen (in India) or koki (in South Africa), is
a pen which has its own ink-source and a tip made of porous, pressed fibers such
as felt.[1] A permanent marker consists of a container (glass, aluminum or plastic) and a
core of an absorbent material. This filling serves as a carrier for the ink. The upper part
of the marker contains the nib that was made in earlier time of a hard felt material, and a
cap to prevent the marker from drying out. Until the early 1990s the most common
solvents that were used for the ink were toluene and xylene. These two substances are
both harmful and characterized by a very strong smell. Today, the ink is usually made
on the basis of alcohols (e.g. 1-propanol, 1-butanol, diacetone alcohol and cresols).
Markers may be waterproof, dry-erase, wet-erase (e.g. transparency markers), or
permanent.
