Often referred to as assemblage art, mixed media includes, but are not limited to collage, altered books, altered objects, art cards (ATC and ACEO), handmade greeting cards, tag art, handmade books using a wide variety of mediums and unusual supplies.

Found here will be a sampling of artist biographies, book reviews, convention coverage, project how-to's, resources, how to sell your art, networking and much more! Not only will artists and enthusiasts be able to view projects, they'll learn how to create them, network with other artists and grow their hobbies and careers.

Each week, you'll find a poll (please vote) which will act as a guide for what topics to present here. Please direct any additional questions and requests through email or post in the discussion forum.

Where Has Jenn Been?

It has been a long time since I have posted anything in the way of blogs and articles. Time to get myself back on the creative track!


Where has Jenn been? That’s been a question ringing in my ears (*well, in my email inbox) for a couple of weeks. My goal was to present daily content in the way of blogs and articles in this Suite101.com topic. I had a good run, until . . .

It was crunch time and I had to finish my book! The Complete Guide to Building Your Own Home and Saving Thousands on Your New House, by yours truly, will be out this summer! What does that have to do with mixed media arts? Well, not much really.

I have been working on projects, though. The kids and I have been creating Mother’s Day gifts, as well as preparing for our summer learning programs (There are lots and lots of mixed media art projects for school-aged children are on the horizon, folks!).

Daily content is resuming, though, because I miss writing about ART!
