We will touch on traditional paper marbling methods as well as basic Suminagashi techniques. You will leave with a desire to do more and dive into the beautiful hole of paper marbling and surface design. Participants will create a lovely bundle of beautifully hand-marbled papers that can be used in many creative ways.
