art journal series: mixed media sampler

February 5, 2021 Leave a Comment

I’ve been exploring landscapes and abstracts for a while, and more recently have spent time on textile inspired collage… so I decided to create a small sampler of the art I’m currently making.

So often we hear that our work as artists needs to be cohesive. That we need to build a body of work that is recognizable.

In it, Tim Harford discusses …
