Experience the magic of marbling decorative and abstract papers with this easy-to-pick-up introductory workshop to a centuries old practice..
This single session hands-on class is so much more than an art party! You'll have the opportunity to follow your curiosity as you experience the spontaneous magic of paper marbling, learning how to control fluid paints to make intricate patterns.
.
You’ll be walked through all the techniques you need to make mesmerizing designs in the vibrant colors of the season: fresh pastel hues setting the calm and optimistic backdrop for bright pops of spring flowers.
.
And you'll have me as your guide! I'm a professional working artist, marbling for 13 years, and ready to have you at my own studio when you come to this event.
.
Take the Paper Marbling Experience over and over: every class will be slightly different with seasonal colors, alternating patterns, and opportunities for you to make new discoveries on your own.
.
In this workshop you will:
· Create 10 marbled papers, 12” x 19”, yours to keep.
· Learn 4 (or more) cool patterns common in fundamental to marbling.
· Explore spontaneity in freestyle marble designs.
· Build on the fundamentals of marbling to create floral and other imagery.
.
1 Ticket to this event reserves your own marbling station, set of tools, and 10 marble-ready sheets of paper.
All art and marbling materials will be provided for you at the workshop.
.
BYOB if you’d like to indulge while you marble.
.
All materials are safe when handled properly, but let me know if you have an allergy or sensitivity.
.
This experience can be messy, please dress appropriately. Aprons will be provided, or wear mess-worthy clothes.
.
I can't wait to have you at the experience!
.
I love getting my hands dirty with students.
.
Students who dive in have a blast. Like Andrea, who says that this is "The BEST class I have ever taken!! Keith is so knowledgable, patient, positive, and encouraging. I learned so much, and had a blast! I highly recommend this class to anyone, at any level!"
.
And she made amazing work!
.
I know you will too.
