Marbling Techniques Workshop


I will be leading a workshop in marbling techniques on November 14 from 10am-1pm. at Art Alliance of Greensboro, located in the Greensboro Cultural Center. We'll cover basic patterns- stones, some feathering patterns, and try some compositional techniques. Everyone will have some mordanted paper and a silk scarf ready to marble.

We'll use textile pigments, a carageenean based bath, and alum mordant. Marbling is such a relaxing technique I expect this to be a great workshop. So far, we have enough students and can take about three more people.
