Mixed media Box!!

hello folks!!
a very good morning!!
Today I am going to present in front of you the most versatile art form - Mixed media.. I really loved it in both ways - the outcome and the process to make it!! Whatever comes in your mind just place it on the base and play with different layers of colors and textures and see what you gets!!
Here is the short pic tutorial of the altered box I made using mixed media art form:

Supplies I used for this:


  • Wooden mdf small size box
  • Camlin Gesso (from Itsy Bitsy)
  • Different embellishments like Flowers, waste buttons, rings, etc..
  • Clear Drops
  • Brick chipboards (from Itsy Bitsy)
  • Textured paste
  • Texture tool (From Itsy Bitsy)
  • Embossing paste (Avocado Smoothie from Itsy Bitsy)
  • Color splash spray
  • Metallic colors

Now, Let's get started:


  • First of all I painted the entire box with gesso and then started give texture using texture tool and thick layer of texture paste and arrange the embellishments as per picture given below:
  • After getting completely satisfied, paint the complete box with black gesso. It will look like as below:
  • Now, the time has come to start with playing colors and keep on doing until you get the desired result!! Just have a look what I got after playing with different layers of colors and embossing paste for highlighting some corners of my art piece!!


Hope I have inspired you to create you something unique and different with this art!!
I am adding this art to the following challenges :
