Mixed Media Menagerie Challenge - August 2021 - Nicole Watson Art

Happy first Wednesday of August.... that means it's #mixedmediamenagerie day!

Can you believe this is our 12th one? (well, technically 11 since we skipped one month!) One year of MMM! WOW! We began this fun challenge September 2020!

This month our challenge included earth tones using spray paint, a ruler, & fountain pen with the theme of architecture. PHEW! Thanks to our sponsor @Shawn Petite we also had some stencils and collage papers to play with.

Shawn is providing an AMAZING discount code this month so you can get in on all the fun. Use menagerie20 on her website (https://www.shawnpetite.com/) for 20% off all stencils, collage pack, prints, and wood panels. RUN over there now!!

After watching my video, check out how @Erin DeCoste and @LauraMixedMedia used the #strangecollectionofthings this month and then we challenge YOU to create with us!

Post your creation using the #mixedmediamen hashtag on instagram by the last wednesday of August for a chance to win the September ephemera pack and any gift from our sponsor (We don't have one yet.... if you are interested in sponsoring, let us know!!)

For the month of July, we wanted to challenge you to color mix! You don't have to own the entire rainbow of colors. Simply using the primaries (red, blue, yellow), you can create green, orange, purple....and everything in-between! Using the theme of repetition, our strange collection of things includes patty paper, a fineline bottle, and water soluble crayons...all in our Dina Wakley Media Journal, denim edition.

Grab any journal paper to create, then post your creation using our strange collection of things + your own ephemera by the last Wednesday of the month on instagram using the #mixedmediamenagerie hashtag. We will draw a winner from all the people that play along to win next month's ephemera pack along with any sponsored gift. (*hint* it's ah-mazing!)

We look forward to seeing how you interoperate this month's challenge!
