Beginner's guide to Mixed Media Art in Adobe Photoshop!

In this video I'll go over my process on how I created this Mixed Media artwork. During the video, I'll try to explain my techniques that'll help you get your first steps in Mixed Media design!

Watch my in-depth explanation on how Mixed Media art works here:
   • Why Mixed Media is awesome!  

Please keep in mind that this is NOT a beginner tutorial in Adobe Photoshop, so I won't go over the basics of the software itself. It is a beginner tutorial in the sense that beginners who've already been working with the software for a little bit of time will learn new advanced techniques.

During the video I'm using a couple of assets, but nothing you can't recreate at home. I'm even showing a couple of free alternatives during the video if you don't want to spend money.

Grab the assets I used in this video:
Photocopy Texture from my Ink Textures pack:
