Making an Abstract Mixed-Media Collage In Mostly Black and White! #artdemo #collage #mixedmedia
Hello, All!
I waned to do something a little different in this one, by using a very limited pallet of mostly black and white with just a hint of color. I used a lot of line work to finish out the design. Line work is near and dear to my heart. I have used it in quite a bit of work in the past, and I wanted to bring it back to add to this mixed media piece.
I used a little collage with some of the Gelli prints that I had lying around my studio, and just a hint of Naples Yellow as well as Light Pink to round out the piece.
I hope you enjoy the process!

    Thank you for this video! It's an eye-opener after hearing so many people say you can't use inkjet prints for gel printing. I have two printers, a Brother MFC-J1800DW and a Canon Pro-300. The Brother, primarily used for everyday printing, uses black pigment based ink, but the cyan, magenta, and yellow are dye based. The Canon Pro-300 uses all pigment based inks. This is great news for printing collage papers!

    • @ArtworkByMelissaReed
      @ArtworkByMelissaReed 2 дня назад

      Thank you so much! I usually just paint them with a very opaque matte black acrylic paint. Occasionally, however, I will carry the design over the edges, as well.

    I love the blue & black one. I immediately saw the moving water, like a big wave. This is such an interesting process but I’m avoiding trying it because I have too many irons in the fire as is, so I will just happily watch you create them. Looking forward to seeing how you use them. Thanks, Melissa. P.S. how about a rabbit?

    • @ArtworkByMelissaReed
      @ArtworkByMelissaReed 12 дней назад

      Thank you for the kind words! Since I am using acrylic paint here, each layer really only takes maybe 5-10 minutes to dry if you let it air dry. I speed it along with a hairdryer on cool temperature, so it just takes a minute or two.☺️

      I used Krylon triple thick acrylic spray. You could also use a gloss varnish. I believe Liquitex makes one.

  • @luannianke8110
    @luannianke8110 17 дней назад

    Looking forward to the human figures. I have been intrigued by others I have seen. Not a cat fan but this is great. I was hoping you wouldn't completely cover the background. Like the flowers but I probably would like the copper foil as well. Very cute and coloful.

    • @ArtworkByMelissaReed
      @ArtworkByMelissaReed 12 дней назад

      Thank you for the feedback! I will be doing some figural work coming up in the future. I also would like to find a way to incorporate some more of the metallic foil into these pieces!☺️

  • @Lainers2000
    @Lainers2000 17 дней назад

    I love everything about this piece; the colors, the cat image, the collage papers. I like that you didn’t obliterate the entire background and let it come through enough that it didn’t take away from the focal point. Agree that copper and teal are a beautiful combination and would have been interesting but maybe on something with not as many other colors? Just my opinion but would love to see something with those elements. I’m a cat lover so anything with cats is fine by me. An owl, maybe? Not sure if you want to keep it a living element but maybe something funky using this technique like an old car or a house (nothing too detailed). Just throwing stuff out there. Thanks for sharing your creative process, Melissa. Always a pleasure watching you.

    • @ArtworkByMelissaReed
      @ArtworkByMelissaReed 12 дней назад

      I think you’re right about keeping it simple on this one. I definitely want to find a way to incorporate some more of the metallic foils, because I love them! Thank you for the great suggestions! I love the idea of an owl and I will definitely be using that! I like the idea of a house or some buildings, too!

  • @lindas5412
    @lindas5412 17 дней назад

    Melissa, I like the choices you made especially those little flowers at the end. Also not filling in the background solidly is more attractive I think. Thanks
