Discover the magic of marbled papers

Did you know that vintage books often had fascinating marbled book end papers in them? Have you ever wondered how they are made?

Learn the basics of paper marbling with Slik Studios as we introduce you to the art of paper marbling. Traditionally known as Ebru Art, which translates as cloud art, it is known as one of the most beautiful art forms created. Paper marbling is a method of aqueous surface design where paints are floated on the surface of a viscous solution and then carefully transferred on paper or fabric.

"..paper marbling has its fame with medical therapy where the peace and tranquility reflected from the art gives the viewer a sense of peace and calmness or in other words, it "nourishes" the soul."

This workshop is an introductory workshop and is for teenages and adults only.
