In-person
Saturday & Sunday, August 9 & 10, 2025
10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.
Instructor: Jennifer Omaitz
Marbling consists of suspending inks on a bed of thickened water (carrageenan). These inks are raked through a series of swirls, zigzags, and other gestures to transform a given design. The outcome is then printed, similar to mono printing, on a surface of choice.
Learn the ancient art of marbling on paper with this intensive workshop. Students will explore patterns and designs by marbling on a variety of papers. We will also explore color combinations and marbling techniques through both traditional (Ebru) and non-traditional approaches. Beginner through intermediate students are welcome. Previous experience with marbling is unnecessary; a thorough introduction and series of demos will guide students through the workshop experience.
* Throughout the weekend, participants can expect to make 15-20 sheets of 18" x 24" marbled paper, in a variety of prints, patterns, and discoveries. (You won’t want to stop!)
Adults, all levels welcome
