Mixed Media Handbook makes your decisions easier and more confident by providing a complete and current working guide to today's traditional and unconventional materials, including tools; substrates; adhesives & mediums; paper, photographs & other collage resources,; natural materials, building supplies & household items; drawing materials, and painting media" -- page 4 of cover.
