Printing Patterns: An Intro to Paper Marbling

This workshop is a one-day introduction to the centuries-old process of floating acrylic paint onto a water-based bath, creating patterns with special tools, and permanently transferring the design onto paper. You will learn all the essentials of marbling from material preparation to learning traditional patterns and playfully creating your own. You will take home many unique papers to use for whatever you wish – book covers and endpapers, collages, jewelry, origami, etc etc etc!!! Participants do not need any prior painting or other art-making experience… all you need is an interest in creating beautiful, decorative patterns using a fun and magical process!
