Double Sided Mixed Media

Mixed media originated in 1912 with the collaboration of Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque. This art form has been rapidly expanding since then, as artists had open attitudes towards this art medium. To be precise, Mixed media is an art method with several media or materials incorporated and merged into a single work of art.  Either wet, dry, or perhaps both, different mediums including fibers, sheets, inks, crayons, acrylics, pencils, oils, paintings, photos from newspapers or magazines, cardboards, and photographs, can be combined into canvases or three-dimensional artworks. When creating a painting or photograph work using mixed media it is important to choose the layers carefully and allow enough drying time between the layers to ensure the final work will have structural integrity.

Similar art forms including assemblage as well as collage are closely connected to mixed media. Among the types of mixed media, double-sided mixed media is one of the popular ones. A double-sided mixed media is a canvas that has mixed media artworks on either side. Historically, artists used to frequently art on either side out of material need. The theme of art on either side of antique and vintage double-sided mixed media was occasionally related but not always.
