In this video, I share a mixed media art experiment where I combined gelli printing, lino print art, and watercolour collage to create a fox illustration — and why this piece didn’t turn out the way I expected!
This failed art experiment slowed me down in the best way. It pushed me toward slow crafting, thoughtful decision-making, and deeper creative reflection — something I want to carry forward into my 2026 art goals.
If you enjoy collage art, art journaling techniques, and mixed media collage that leans into imperfection, curiosity, and growth, this video is for you. It’s part of my ongoing journey through whimsical art, cosy crafting, and honest making on craft YouTube and art YouTube.
