Description:
Paper marbling is a mesmerising process where abstract patterns are created by dropping liquid paint on a surface of thickened water. At its simplest this creates a delightful arrangement of stone-like shapes, but various tools can also be used to create more intricate patterns.
Introduction to Paper Marbling Workshop (half day)
In this half-day workshop, we will learn the first steps to the art of paper marbling. With all the materials already prepared for you beforehand, we will work together through a range of paper marbling techniques, from basic patterns like stones, Italian vein and swirls, through to more complex ones like nonpareil.
Preparation + Introduction to Paper Marbling Workshop (full day):
In this full-day workshop, we will learn how to prepare our paper, paint and size for paper marbling, so that you have all the tools you need to marble independently at home afterwards. After that, we will work together through a range of paper marbling techniques, from basic patterns like stones, Italian vein and swirls, through to more complex ones like nonpareil.
