Video Introduction

Creative Medium Product Overview

Creative Medium is an acrylic paste perfect for mixed media art, collage, decoupage art techniques, and works well on paper, wood, metal or art canvases. Creative Medium comes in a variety of colors such as Original (clear), Shimmer, Vintage, Metallic Gold, Metallic Silver, Iridescent Purple, and Iridescent Turquoise. These acrylic art products are creamy pastes that can be stenciled, spread or dabbed on artwork for gorgeous texture and color.

What is Mixed Media Art? Mixed media is essentially any art style that mixes paints, inks, and materials to create texture and imagery. Mixed Media artists have a large range of style but many reuse or up-cycle items found at thrift stores, vintage stores, or garage sales. Mixed media art can be home decor or be used to craft pages inside an art journal.

Creative Medium creates striking photo transfers using toner-based images onto a variety of surfaces including paper, metal, canvas, wood, and more. What makes Creative Medium different from other gel mediums is that it transfers darker areas of images perfectly.

Creative Medium Iridescent is available in 6 different colors, revealing beautiful and bold colors on dark backgrounds. Because Creative Medium is blendable, experiment using multiple colors for unique color effects and finishes.

Creative Medium can be stamped with pigment or solvent inks once dried. Creative Medium readily accepts glitter, inks and other additives when still wet. Use on canvas, metal, wood, plastic, glass, cardstock, tile, acetate and shrink plastic. Easy clean-up. Water-based; archival and acid free. Conforms to ASTM D-4236

Tips:

Apply Creative Medium with a Palette Knife, Doodlestix, InkBlusher, Multi-Purpose Squeegee, Mini Squeegee or Brushstix
Apply multiple thin layers to create depth and texture; allow each layer to dry completely before applying successive layers
Drying time increases when applying multiple, thinner coats versus one thick coat
Optimal results from air drying but can be heat set with a heat tool
Clean hands and tools with soap and warm water after use
Replace lid on jar when not in use to prevent contents from drying
Not dishwater safe
Store at room temperature
