Mixed Media Menagerie Challenge - October 2021- Nicole Watson Art

Happy October and #mixedmediamenagerie day!

We chose a fun color palette to create a magical page in our art journal this month using crackle paste, glitter, and a palette knife. While my page wasn't at all as magical as planned, in the end I declared that art is magical....even when it's not!

After watching my video, check out how @Erin DeCoste & @LauraMixedMedia used the #strangecollectionofthings this month and then we challenge YOU to create with us!

We hope you were inspired to play along! Use #mixedmediamenagerie on instagram so we can see what you create.
