Mixed Media Vs. Multimedia
Maybe you have been using the wrong term all of this time? Without knowing, a great deal of people get confused between the two concepts of mixed media and multimedia. There are two very distinct differences that need to be used to label your art work correctly.Multimedia
Multimedia is a piece made with multiple forms of media and utilizes them in a harmony. It is not just simply using marker, watercolors, acrylic, and other materials, but other content such as text, video, images, animation, etc. This form of expression is done mainly for entertainmentMixed Media
Is strictly various art forms combined for a single piece of art. Personally I enjoy this more then doing just acrylic because it leaves one with more freedom to be expressive. For an example if you draw with ink then go over with water water color or vice versa with adding colored pencils to highlight it and add texture.Check out my art gallery, by clicking here, to see the many ways I used mixed media in my work! The Spiderman piece is my favorite as of right now.
