Paint & Play: Mixed Media Flowers

A beginner-friendly class to explore color, texture, and layers through a joyful field of poppies and daisies.

You Don’t Need Fancy Skills or Supplies

Mixed media can look complicated, but it doesn’t have to be.

You don’t need expensive tools, years of experience, or perfect skills to start.

In this class, I’ll guide you step by step through a fun, relaxed project: a field of poppies and daisies painted in mixed media.

It’s playful, colorful, and designed to help you experiment without fear of doing it wrong.

A Simple Way to Start Mixed Media

This class is perfect for you if you’ve always wanted to try mixed media but didn’t know where to start.

It’s filmed in real time, fully narrated, and divided into bite-sized videos, so you can easily follow along at your own pace.

You’ll discover how different mediums can work together and how simple it is to build beautiful layers.

What You’ll Learn

•How to mix acrylic paint, ink, and collage elements to create depth and texture

•How to add details and contrast with acrylic markers and collage

•How to build layers that look rich without feeling heavy

•How to let go of perfection and enjoy the process

What You’ll Need

You can paint along using only acrylic paint if that’s what you have, but here’s the full supply list if you’d like to explore further:

•Acrylic paint
•Acrylic ink
•Acrylic markers
•Vintage paper (or any paper you like for collage)
•Glue stick or gel medium
•One flat brush and one round brush

You don’t need every single item to get started. Mixed media is all about flexibility.

What You’ll Take Away

By the end of this class, you’ll have a bright, textured page full of life, and more importantly, you’ll understand how fun and freeing mixed media can be. You’ll see how easy it is to paint without rules, trust your instincts, and enjoy the creative process.
