Creating layers in your mixed media art doesn’t have to be complicated!
In this video, I walk you through my go-to layering techniques using fluid acrylics, gel prints, collage, and subtle texture elements to build depth and visual interest. You’ll see how I balance delicate details with bold marks, use repeating elements for cohesion, and experiment with stencils, Posca pens, and graphite pencil to create rich, dimensional compositions.
If you’ve ever struggled with making your layers work together, this process will give you fresh ideas and confidence to push your mixed media pieces further!

Every creative person has different needs. Here are the different ways to enjoy these videos.
– Some enjoy hearing me explain my process. If that’s you, make sure your volume is on.
– Others prefer to read my process through the closed-caption subtitles. If that’s you, turn on the CC at the bottom right of the video.
– Some don’t want to hear my voice (that’s ok 😀). If that’s you, turn the volume off and watch.
