Hi everyone I'm Sharon and I am hosting the October Artsy / Mixed Media challenge.

As it is an artsy challenge, you ideally need to use a variety of painterly mediums like brushes, paint splats, overlays, textures, painterly styles, gesso, etc. more artsy-fartsy than just a splash of paint :)

I love a good textured looking page. You can start with a textured mixed media page as I did from Rachel Jeffries Sea Spray. Look for gesso, folds, tears, cloth, dried paint and brushes. I also used some mixed media pieces from AnnaAspnes. I want to see a generous background of textures-at least half of the page or more.

Here is my page. I used a textured paper from R.Jeffries that had plenty of fold and tears, I added fabric, gesso, dried paint and brushes. I also played with the effects on the papers.

Not quite sure if this is "artsy" enough. This is really a challenge for me!
Thanks for the challege Sharon. This was a real challenge for me as I don't usually dabble in this style but I was pleasantly surprised by the result. I hope it meets the criteria for mixed media.
