How to Create Mixed Media Art on Shopping Tote Bags
When I buy shopping bags for groceries, I buy them for groceries simple.
Click here and buy Art by Miabo Enyadike in Saatchi Art.
Lately they have been piling up and I also don't remember to take them along to the stores.
I always end up with new ones or opt for the store plastics bags, any which way, you end up paying for either of them.

Cleaning out the pantry the other day, was well an eye opener, I discovered in a light bulb moment that it was not so bad to have all these shopping bags,because the texture could be used for craft or art of some sort!.

That was good, my thoughts just went with my new desire, to apply art on all surfaces and experience, different textures and new ways of creating art.

I discovered they could absorb paint and still retain, their texture and it didn't require a lot of priming of the surface.

Once I had that figure out, I decided to create Abstract mixed media art, using paper and small cut out boards, with tribal art on them.

I applied paint to the surface, of the bags and added all the other elements.

My aim simply is to reiterate the
possibilities out there to create art, in our time as contemporary artist, regardless of our circumstances..........Enjoy.
