In this episode I’m sharing some of my favourite ways that abstract artists have used mixed media to bring texture, depth and emotional resonance into their landscapes. You'll also hear why mixed media is more than just technique. It’s a way to connect with emotion, with place and with what’s real beneath the surface.

The creative challenge this week is to make a small abstract landscape using at least one material you don’t usually use - collage, sand, pencil, ink, even something from nature. Let your materials guide you.
