How to Build Up Mixed Media Layers in Your Sketchbook (Tour + Demo)
Creating sketchbook backgrounds is oh so fun, but what do you do next?
In this video, I want to share how I progress my spreads from simple backgrounds to richly layered mixed-media art. I'll walk you through some recently completed spreads and share practical tips on using concepts like scale, repetition, and contrast to bring your sketchbook pages to life.
Plus, you'll see me continue working on the backgrounds I started in a recent video. I hope you enjoy the video and find some inspiration and encouragement in this relaxed, incremental approach to making art!
