Mixed Media & Art Journaling with Love
First Mixed Media blog in Romania
Sometimes I love to work on loose sheets of paper, like Mixed Media Canson block, the 200 grm (120 lbs) in A5 format 14,8x 21 cm (5.8”x8.3”). This type of paper works pretty good when adding water, and it’s perfect to experience all kind of mixed media techniques. Uneori imi place sa lucrez pe bucati …
