About this Medium

Mixed media tends to refer to a work of visual art that combines various traditionally distinct visual art media. For example, a work on canvas that combines paint, ink, and collage could properly be called a "mixed media" work. When creating a painted or photographed work using mixed media it is important to choose the layers carefully and allow enough drying time between the layers to ensure the final work will have integrity. If many different media are used it is equally important to choose a sturdy foundation upon which the different layers are imposed. Many interesting effects can be achieved by using mixed media. Often, found objects are used in conjunction with traditional artist media, such as paints and graphite, to express a meaning in the everyday life. In this manner, many different elements of art become more flexible than with traditional artist media. The Art of Mike Slobot » About About What are the slobots? The slobots are a mild obsession for me. They are part toy and part fine art sculpture. They are like friends that reflect the better parts of us. For the most part, the slobots come with stories, each one crafted to suit the particular robot, including things like searching for jobs, love, or meaning, all the way to search and rescue or health and healing themes. Some have even been dog walkers and dolphin protectors. All in all, the slobots are a friendly race of robots that protect humans and animals. I use my slobots as a means to comment on the human condition. I see the idea of a robot that uses its strengths for good as a really positive thing. Each slobot is built to last and is created to keep at least some of our everyday trash from cluttering up the landfills and garbage dumps. You can visit mike slobot’s robot sculpture art gallery or the robots painting art gallery… Are they toys? Not really, even though they start out or have toy parts on them at times. The slobots are fragile, and it is best to regard them
