Paper Marbling

February 11 @ 1:00 pm 4:00 pm

Have you wondered how those beautiful marbled patterned papers are made? In this hands-on one-day workshop, instructor Tony Vela will show you how! The class will start by going over the preparation of materials, including the carrageenan bath, alum treatment of your paper, and getting pigments to the right state ready for marbling. You’ll learn many of the traditional patterns, such as the Stone marble, Get Gel, Nonpareil, Peacock, French curl, Spanish wave, and more. Each person will be able to make up to 15 marbled sheets to take home.

Level: No experience necessary | Adults 18+
