What is a mixed media artwork?

1 Answer
What is a mixed media artwork?
A mixed media artwork is when the piece is usually composed or fabricated by the use of two or more different materials. For example, if in an oil painting on canvas the artist decides to include any other media, like acrylic paint, gold leaf, silver leaf, glass, or any other kind of paint that is not oil paint, it would be considered a 'mixed media' artwork.
