Overmarbling I – Seattle — Three-Day Intensive
About this Event
Overmarbling I – Three-Day Intensive
Marbling does not have to end with the first pull. In this intensive workshop, students will explore the extraordinary possibilities created when a previously marbled sheet returns to the tray for a second carefully planned layer.
Students will learn how color, pattern, scale, orientation, transparency, and negative space interact when one marbled design is placed over another. We will explore the preparation of previously marbled papers for subsequent printing, registration and directional considerations, complementary and contrasting pattern combinations, and the deliberate planning required to create successful multi-layered papers.
The objective is not simply to place one attractive pattern over another. Successful overmarbling requires anticipating how two separate designs will interact to produce a third, unified composition. Students will learn to plan that relationship before the second pull and to use the first layer as an active element of the final design.
Expect experimentation, unexpected results, and a considerable expansion of what a sheet of marbled paper can become.
