Mixed media collage, wall art, minimalist abstract 2024 collage, fireplace mantle, acrylic mixed media art

10 x 10 series: "35 again" is a neutral mixed media number collage made using layered tags with pops of turquoise. the numbers on the collage are metal. this is a nice size for a studio office and it will add visual interest on your fireplace mantle.

my process includes layering paper, paint and ink on canvas. the initial layer consists of items that bring me inspiration such as torn pieces of scrapbook paper, vintage magazine print, dictionary pages, junk mail inserts, vintage journal entry pages, etc. - you name it! then I include a layer of modeling paste for totally touchable texture and mix with vibrantly playful paint colors. plus I add stamped images of grids and circles and squares to create a lovely mix of repeating patterns followed by some splashes of alcohol ink for added variation and visual interest.

this collage has been sealed for extra protection and it's signed and dated on the back. The edges and sides are painted to match the front of the collage.

thank you for viewing my original, one-of-a-kind mixed media collage!

a couple things to note - this mixed media collage is copyrighted material and the sale of the mixed media collage does not transfer ownership of the copyrighted material. and the colors of 2024 the Artwork might appear different then on the actual item, depending on your screen resolution and calibration. i do my best :-) i'm an artist, not a photographer!
