In this video I go through a few examples, from quick sketchbook studies to a more involved piece, to explore how collage pieces created on the gel plate can open up new avenues for your drawing and mixed media work.

You can repeat as much as you like! There is SO much information in your videos I watch them many times over as I try to work through the techniques. These are brilliant. I've said it before...best mixed media art instruction on the internet 🏆

I watch a lot of art tutorials on KZfaq and your stuff is by far for me the most inspiring and interesting of the lot. The shop front piece is genius. I loved watching you create it and it got me thinking about ways I can incorporate the techniques into my own work. Thanks so much Mark for keeping it cool, interesting and real! Spot on!

great piece. there is way too much time between your vids! like everyone is saying you are a top notch content creator - not a lot of yammering but rather really practical step by step valuable talk from beginning to end. so much of art is problem solving (that's what makes it fun!) and you always have great workarounds and solutions. and your skills sets are clearly high quality. have learned tons from your vids. more, and more often, please. please!

Now I'm going to have to go back and see how you did some of these, but I am always happy to have you repeat things. There's just so much to learn. Thanks for sharing your wonderful ideas!
