Marbling is the ancient art of floating colors on thickened water, swirling patterns, and transferring the design to paper. Today marbled patterns are found on fabric, inside boxes, and on notepaper. This workshop will reveal the mysteries of this once secretive art. Participants will learn about the history of marbling, see a demonstration, and have an opportunity to try their hand at the craft. Each participant will make 2 or more sheets of marbled paper which they can pick up the following Tuesday.
