Here is the video of my creative journey to Mixed Media Art which I shared as part of Pass The Brush Art Experience..


Thank you for joining me, you can also connect with me on  Instagram and check out some of the other artists.

 

The aim of the event is to show solidarity within the art community and to amplify black artists so their voices can be heard and art can be seen in a broader audience.  Connect with each other as artists and see what our similarities and differences.


Let me know what you are getting on with.


Here are the artists that shared their spaces and their audiences. You can check out their instagram pages and see some of their amazing work.
